This is Gavin Newsom · And, This Is Why Reid Hoffman Doesn’t Fear Artificial Intelligence · 19 Jun 2026 podcast

We're starting a new war, right?

Like, you know, da-da-da-da.

So it's like –

Like in all those cases, what businesses do, the very first thing they do is let's not incur any new expenses.

It's let's not hire any new people, accept the very clear people we need.

Entry levels are usually like, oh, these are people we need five years from now.

Well, we don't know what we need five years from now, so let's not do that.

It's also let's not do a new lease.

Let's not, like, it's like, let's just chill.

So that's the primary driving actual factor, right?

Now, that being said, and by the way, there are a few places which are AI related, like, for example, the meta layoffs are we need to free up costs for spending on compute.

And so we're going to do it.

So it's not that there's zero.

blood bath but i mean you and i don't know if dario said that or not but i mean he did it was not surprising on the basis of the question i'll ask which is i mean obviously he's because of his emphasis and he put a numeric about 50 of white collar jobs be eliminated at least new white collar jobs in the next well five years less than five years by 2030 again hyperbole from your perspective and you're a guy who's you know you're a fan of dario's i'm a huge fan of dario's and look

Dario Frukelin gets criticized that he's doing it for like kind of promoting his own technology.

And this is how important my technology is.

No, Dario is very principled, right?
