Job loss for knowledge workers, especially affecting intro jobs (I'm thinking of frontend dev or paralegal work, which is how a lot of people get a foothold in these fields). What are reasonable degrees to take out a college loan for in 2024? Militaries using AI checkpoints, guards, patrols, and loitering munitions (from a Humanitarian / rules of war perspective, not necessarily existential risk). Possibly to continue regimes where human soldiers would defect or differentiate civilians from armed opponents. AI-reinforced media bubbles promoting alternative realities (most people blame this on social media, but from QAnonCasualties it seems like YouTube and Facebook recommendations hooked a lot of people before mainstream companies assessed whether they could be harmful). I think this is more core than "deepfakes" because people believe even fake Tweet screenshots if it backs the narrative.

Because realistically there are a lot of people who got degrees in what amounts to underwater basket weaving and are upset that there isnt a place for the in the work force already.

IN my book the new boss is the same as the old boss, just on a different pulpit.
