This is an insanely cynical take. Replace workers with AI but commit some money to retrain them for some theoretical jobs which seemingly aren’t able to be replaced by AI. Don’t worry about if they ever get jobs just give Sal Khan more money to retrain people and your conscious will be clean.

Actuality: no successful job retraining programs are created. The number of workers successfully retrained can be counted on one hand.
