My follow up expands on it. You are arguing that LLMs are not capable of entirely replacing a human’s job therefore people are not losing jobs over AI is extremely bad faith. If a machine in a factory automates 50% of a worker’s job, it still replaces half the workers. The factory won’t employ the same number of people and the people absolutely lost their jobs to automation.

They are losing their jobs over other indirect conditions like economic ones, if they even are which I don't see any actual evidence of beyond, as I said, ZIRP ending induced layoffs and similar.

I'm sure you could argue endlessly about which factors are more important to more people, but overall employment does appear to be reverting to its longer-term trends after pandemic disruptions, and these kinds of corrections have historically impacted junior positions much more than senior positions.
