The Imminent AI Job Crisis: Are You Prepared?
This episode highlights the alarming prediction by Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic, that AI could eliminate half of all entry-level white-collar jobs within the next one to five years, potentially raising U.S. unemployment to 20%.

The episode discusses the impacts of AI on various industries and jobs, stressing the need for urgent action such as an AI 'token tax,' real-time job replacement tracking, legislative briefings, and worker reskilling programs. The message is clear: the AI job crash is imminent, and proactive measures are essential to mitigate its effects.
