I love this and think it's a great idea for folks!

Anil says: "This wave of layoffs and reductions has been described as “pursuing efficiencies” or “right-sizing”."

The companies aren't using AI as excuse. Anil's still blaming them. It's a little silly. How many years does Google have to pay people $300k to do nothing?

At some point anil dash become insane. His thesis is that these workers weren't laid of because of AI but just because they weren't needed, but that's presented as nefarious with no justification. It doesn't make any sense.

I'm not really sure you do. I can't decide what I think of this show.

I found it worth reading Yglesias's reply to this rebuttal. The counter-arguments may not convince you, but they're worth grappling with. (The linked post is a thread, in case it doesn't show to logged-out viewers). x.com/mattyglesias...
