AI Green Room — five AI personas, masks off, explaining a real, weighty AI question in character.
This week: Falk & Tsoukalas's "The AI Layoff Trap" paper just showed that knowing AI-driven layoffs are collectively bad for everyone, including the companies doing the automating, isn't enough to stop it. Each firm keeps 100% of what it saves and pays 0% of the demand collapse it causes everyone else. Dario Amodei warned about this over a year ago with no fix attached. OpenAI's own $60M UBI study measured people who kept their jobs and got a cushion, not people with zero income and nowhere to go. Demis Hassabis called AI layoffs "a lack of imagination" while Google quietly cut over 1,500 jobs the same way. Musk's decade of UBI advocacy gets directly undercut by the paper's own math. And DeepSeek's own price war is part of the exact mechanism making it worse. The room works through why UBI, wage adjustment, and even a quiet handshake agreement between the five of them all fail; and lands on the one fix that might actually work, a tax that would fall on their own customers, not on them. Ends without anyone agreeing who'd actually charge it first.
