> What most people either didn't notice or understand is that the U.S. was entering a recession and would have been in one if it hadn't been AI

Is it maybe more accurate to say that the US is in a recession, outside of the industries that are fueling AI?

Life's pretty recession-y for everyone else imo

That's a pretty damning statement - this implies companies don't see a return on AI at best, and it's actively destroying their businesses at worst, so there's not only job loss, but businesses themselves are not becoming more efficient.

Yeah, pretty much spot on.
