I also would love this source too. I saw this chart and the polio ones a long time ago but can't find it now.

"The corporate press is factual but not truthful" - Michael Malice @nprofile…w2gj
Narratives aren't always truth. Always consider the incentives:

LLMs are powerful tools and they are making many things more efficient, especially learning and coding. However, layoffs are simply economic decisions, usually to correct for a previous decision that didn't work out, which is the driver behind these 16k Amazon layoffs.
As a former Amazon employee and someone who has worked at, or with, many enterprise companies, there are often a LOT of middle managers who offer no value to these organizations' productivity. These jobs were always a drag on the organization, whether "AI" exists or not.

"What are you going to do?" is the most important question to ask yourself.
"Why" is sometimes an interesting question, but it never changes "What."
When presenting someone with facts (say about US monetary policy or political climate change narratives), they very often immediately ask "why would they do that?".
This is the moment they are struggling through their previous mindset. It is definitely a reasonable next question to understand incentives, but it isn't actually necessary to accept the paradigm shift. I increasingly think it's important to pause here and not give the obvious (but likely not to be accepted) answers, and reconfirm that they accept the "new" facts...the "what".
If we get there, then we can get closer to "what to do about it", when"why" (potentially) becomes useful.

To a bad man, there is nothing more dangerous than a good man who is willing to act on his ethical principles.

Stay humble, stack sats.
Be honest.
Be real.
Do the right thing.
Build a better world.
Be a better person.
One day at a time.
One step at a time.
This is hard work, but its worth every effort.
