🚨BREAKING: Two researchers from UPenn and Boston University just published a paper that should be uncomfortable reading for every CEO automating their workforce right now.
The argument is straightforward. Every company replacing workers with AI is also eliminating its own future customers. Laid off workers stop spending. Enough of them stop spending and nobody can afford to buy anything. The companies that fired everyone end up selling into an economy with no purchasing power left.
Every executive can see this. The math is not complicated. But here is why nobody stops.
If you do not automate, your competitor does. They cut costs, lower prices, take your market share, and you collapse anyway. So every company automates knowing it is collectively destructive because the alternative is dying alone while everyone else survives. The researchers proved this is a Prisoner's Dilemma playing out in real time.
The numbers are already moving. Block cut nearly half its 10,000 employees this year. Jack Dorsey said AI made those roles unnecessary and that within the next year the majority of companies will reach the same conclusion. Salesforce replaced 4,000 customer support agents with AI. Goldman Sachs deployed a coding tool that lets one engineer do the work of five. Over 100,000 tech workers were laid off in 2025 and AI was cited as the primary driver in more than half those cases. 80% of US workers hold jobs with tasks susceptible to AI automation.
The researchers tested every proposed solution. Universal basic income does not change a single company's incentive to automate. Capital income taxes adjust profit levels but not the per-task decision to replace a human. Collective bargaining cannot hold because automating is always the dominant strategy.
They also identified what they call a Red Queen effect. Better AI does not solve the problem, it accelerates it. Every company chases faster automation to gain market share over rivals but at the end everyone has automated equally, the gains cancel out, and the only thing left is more destroyed demand.
The one thing the math says could work is a Pigouvian automation tax. A per-task charge that forces companies to account for the demand they destroy each time they replace a worker.
The conclusion is that this is not a transfer of wealth from workers to owners. Both sides lose. Workers lose income. Companies lose customers. It is a deadweight loss with no market mechanism to stop it on its own.

Se’ns escapa el somni de la Champions. Aquest equip mereixia més i ho hem donat tot, ho hem tingut a tocar, però no ha pogut ser.
Ho tornarem a intentar les vegades que faci falta per tornar-la a guanyar, aquesta generació de futbolistes volem portar-la a Barcelona.
Ara toca recuperar-nos i guanyar la Lliga que tant desitgem.
#ForçaBarça 💙❤️

Every time I watch Álvarez, he leaves me confused. With each performance, it becomes clearer how brilliant he is as a footballer, but at the same time, it also shows that he’s better suited to playing as a number 10 or a second striker rather than as a lone striker.
That’s the dilemma, because it’s not really the profile Flick needs. But at the same time, the striker market is so dry right now that there aren’t many options who perfectly fit that role either.
So it puts you in a very strange situation: do you go for a player of Álvarez’s quality, even if he’s not the ideal profile, or do you wait for a better fit that might not even be available?

Very well said @AskMichaelTaiwo . Thank you! We have scholarships for international graduate students in the US. The next cycle opens soon on April 1st. Our website seyifoundation.org has all the information about eligibility.
Michael Taiwo@AskMichaelTaiwo
It is a good idea and something we may consider. In the meantime, I advise graduate students to apply for the @SeyiOfoundation scholarships. They are legit and some MT Scholars (and non MT Scholars) have benefitted in the past. They give $5K grants and $1K grants which go a long way for students.

Dear Dr. MT (@AskMichaelTaiwo), should we anticipate MT Research Grants for graduate students in the future?

This is insane 😳
Most people are just using AI tools
Very few actually understand how they work
So I collected Stanford’s complete LLM curriculum
and turned it into a step-by-step learning path
Worth over $500
Giving it away free for the first 4,500 people
Transformers → Training → Alignment → Agents → Evaluation
Study this once and you’ll stop guessing with prompts
and start thinking like a real AI engineer
How to get it:
Follow must (so i can dm you)
Rt and comment 'LLM'
