Twitter debate: can screen-based jobs justify themselves by 2030?
StephaneMallard · x · 2026-10-17
Commentator Stéphane Mallard quotes a take that many screen-based jobs will be hard to justify by 2030 and responds: most people don't understand economics and can't imagine a world where AI produces without humans, insisting on human indispensability without ever asking what value humans actually add. A reply counters: who pays the bill if AI labs go bankrupt in 2027? A representative clash of views on AI-driven job displacement versus an AI bubble.
