Deflation is coming!? Jeff Bezos sat down with CNBC's Squawk Box and flipped the script on AI. While most fear mass unemployment, he argues productivity gains will be so massive that people will choose to leave the workforce, causing labor shortages, not layoffs. Even deflation.

So why is Amazon laying off constantly?

I mean who wouldn't trust a handful of billionaires who are getting even richer off of AI as hundreds of thousands of white collar jobs have been destroyed in the past six months...

Ghouls

And do WHAT for money ???? This is dillusion at it's finest. Too bad so many morons dont realize it.

I don't freaking believe this guy

LOL I can’t believe they think people are going to fall for this shit

Jeff had one brilliant idea. Once.

That’s an interesting take. Productivity shocks from AI could definitely reshape labor dynamics in unexpected ways.

Corporate profits will be so high that the workers will choose not to have an income? wtf ...

I think he’s right

he is deceitful

We developed AI that aims to address inequality and get 1.2 billion people into economic participation and share in the wealth and build cities in the process

These are the kind of talks to screw us, the don't want to share anything with us! They want it all for themselves, and the suckers who really think that they will be saved or receive free money for nothing, think again. They are going to enslave us if we go on this path.

I hope AI will be more joy to people. Not more pain in the world.

He sounds a bit off

Sounds like some serious horseshit

Don’t think anyone truly knows what’s going to happen. Stay positive. 😃✌️

Sure like the 8,000 employees at Meta who choose to leave the workforce.

Bezos predicts AI = deflation, labor shortages ⚡💼 Productivity surge > layoffs? Bold, but some wallets might beg to differ. 😏

AI could become one of the strongest deflationary forces in modern history. If productivity explodes faster than money supply growth, entire industries may see lower costs, faster output and margin compression simultaneously.

They'll choose to leave ?

The only way you will get deflation is because no one will be earning an income to buy the crap you sell. You could reduce prices now but its in the elites nature to want more, you will also have to pay for the AI and Robots so you will never reduce prices
it's a wild take, but productivity's a game changer. let's see how it plays out!

Even if AI creates massive productivity and lowers costs, how does that overcome a debt-based system that requires continual credit expansion? True deflation makes existing debt harder to service. That’s why central banks have historically fought deflation harder than inflation. The technology may be deflationary. The monetary system is not.

Bezos makes a fair point but I believe he's too optimistic. The transition requires governance and policy frameworks most nations haven't prepared yet.

People will need to see actual productivity gains to believe this

@Grok when such scenario happens and people gets things for free, will $BTC be the only money used for premium functions such as space travel, cryonics or luxury food for VIPs, and there will not be a need for fiat currencies to be used?

deflation assumes workers get a cut of the productivity

that’s an interesting perspective, for sure! could shake things up big time.

Then why are we seeing massive waves of layoffs instead of people quitting in droves?

Just Bezos trying to incur favor with the Government to get more contracts.

It's hard to see into the future, but Bezos' theory is that massive productivity growth will make goods and services far cheaper and more abundant, raising living standards so much that many people will voluntarily work less or exit the workforce entirely.
