Anton Leicht explains how Washington could be blindsided by an AI jobs backlash because the people running the Super Intelligence Force haven’t prepared for the labor fallout: "There used to be this take of, clearly the jobs thing will happen first. That has sort of not happened, because the loss of control conversations blew up over the summer, and the job impacts just aren't there, at least not yet." "I still wouldn't underestimate how quickly the job loss issue can blow up. Even very limited, very locally clustered stories of people losing their jobs can very quickly blow up to national media attention." "I don't think the Trump administration has pre-developed messaging around why some job disruption might be acceptable. If this does happen, it would just blindside them, and then we'll see them scrambling." "You'll have people in the administration preparing for primaries, and suddenly there's this job loss narrative, and they feel like they're presiding over this AI build-out that's costing everyone their jobs." @anton_d_leicht
