Shocking Warning from Former Executive! AI Is Set to ELIMINATE Middle Class As It Takes Over Jobs



Summary:
A former Google executive warned that artificial intelligence will plunge society into more than a decade of severe disruption and hardship as it eliminates many white-collar jobs—and the “hell” will begin as early as 2027.

Mo Gawdat, who left Google X as its chief business officer in 2018 and has become a popular author and public speaker, painted a grim picture of widespread job losses, economic inequality and social chaos from the AI revolution.

“The next 15 years will be hell before we get to heaven,” Gawdat told British entrepreneur Steven Bartlett on his “Diary of a CEO” podcast on Monday.

Gawdat, 58, pointed to his own startup, Emma.love, which builds emotional and relationship-focused artificial intelligence. It is run by three people.

“That startup would have been 350 developers in the past,” he told Bartlett in the interview, first reported by Business Insider.
