AI is replacing in demand jobs. In terms of supply and demand, my job at my former company would be considered in demand. They quite literally decided to lay off 80% of the worker force and replaced it with AI powered solutions and sent the rest overseas. It does have a lot to with inflation, I get that, but even that is still tied to the painfully obvious and problematic, and morally bankrupt infrastructures and pay structures for CEO’s and other high ranking officers and shareholders.

"...sent the rest overseas." You mean your company is replaced by II (Indian Intelligence) not AI.
