Executives warned that AI is likely to displace human work quickly, potentially requiring government intervention to support affected workers. Amodei emphasized uncertainty when exponential technologies accelerate, but judged the risk likely enough to warrant a public warning and candid communication. He said governments may need to step in to provide support as AI replaces jobs. Anthropic co-founder Jack Clark said policy responses must match the scale of disruption expected, possibly within the next five years. The potential speed and scale of displacement create urgency for policy planning and workforce protections to manage economic and social impacts.
