> Like self driving cars will automate away truck drivers - do you not think they need to be laid off because of AI?

geohot is talking about AI has its limitation and that it won't truly replace the human yet. Truck drivers and some people who contribute net positive value are not rent seekers at the moment.

AI could render our jobs to be rent seeking, we don't know when.

We have unions actively opposing self driving cars mainly to protect their own jobs. In fact I think it’s much more common for a company to lay off because of real ai impact than anything else
