Social Capital(@socialcapital):.@chamath on why AI job doomerism is a political strategy: "There's an incredibly important incentive for folks that are not in the power structure today, i.e. Democrats, to take up the doomerism call to action, because it is a very straightforward way to whip up fear and then catalyze that to power in the midterms and then in '28." "All the data up until now tells us there will be more jobs and more to do. More work to be done, more judgment, more taste to be imposed. This narrative does not come from a place of data-driven fact. It comes from a political calculus that doomerism is a way to foment distrust and displeasure and then use that at the polls."
