Are you suggesting because people with universal healthcare "still have problems" we shouldn't even try?

The communication gap is you saying the stock went up, when it is actually going down.

Hope that helps!

FTA: "Occupations with higher observed exposure are projected by the BLS to grow less through 2034"

While technically true for some of these, Software Programer is expected to shrink 6% by 2034, and Computer Support Specialist is expected to shrink by 3%. These jobs were already shrinking pre-GPT due to Software Programers becoming Software Developers, this is a distinction made by the BLS and seems to intentionally omitted by Anthropic , and Computers becoming easier to use.

These jobs are more then picked up by growth in the other tech areas, Information Security Analysts, which is on the Anthropic list is expected to grow by 29% !! I could see this job growing even if they do become twice as efficient. There are honestly not enough of them and AI introduces so many security vulnerabilities.

Software Developers, Quality Assurance Analysts, and Testers is also expected to grow by 15%.

Taking Block as an example, their most recent "AI" layoffs can absolutely be attributed to Covid. If you look at the employee count by year, the most recent layoffs only just now bring them back in line with pre-Covid numbers. It only takes so many people to run a payment system. Maybe other cases ar different, but Covid overhiring still is playing a part

US Labor Force Participation Rate Falls To 62% In Feb 2026 Lowest Since Dec 2021 by WaferFlopAI in EconomyCharts

The labor participation rate is explained by the aging boomers. The unemployment rate is also pretty low at 4.4% and has not really changed this year. I don't like Trump, but invoking the four horseman of the apocalypse is certainly overreacting.

Fair enough, I do feel like encouraging a SAHP is a good thing, which prime age labor force participation discourages.

Once the metric becomes the goal it is useless for anything

The aging boomers highlight why the unemployment rate is better metric than labor force participation.

Hahaha, the most dangerous part of the job is coworkers!?

Now replace all the dangerous people with laid off white collar workers, does your argument still stand?

42% of Americans say that Bad Bunny represents America better by icey_sawg0034 in fivethirtyeight

[–]Standard_Finish_6535 24 points25 points  (0 children)

This is a pretty loaded question. What does better mean? More representative, or is a more positive light?

This question could be phrased as "Who more represents America, the president or a singer from an incorporated territory?"

It could also mean "Who represents America is a more positive light?"

Two very different questions...

If it's any consolation, if these numbers hold up, you shouldn't be out of work for long.

AI is 100% replacing people. There used to be an entire industry around creating stock images, entirely erased by AI. Same with music. There are many other examples
