“Most people don’t enjoy their jobs,” Perplexity AI co-founder and CEO Aravind Srinivas said on an episode of the “All-In” podcast last month. “There’s suddenly a new possibility, a new opportunity, to go use these tools, learn them, and start your own mini business.” He continued, “Even if there is temporary job displacement to deal with, that sort of glorious future is what we should look forward to.”
The idea is that AI tools can take over routine tasks while giving individuals the ability to create their own income streams. That could include freelancing, launching small online businesses, or using AI to handle work that once required larger teams.

The labor market is already showing signs of change tied to artificial intelligence.
U.S. employers announced 60,620 job cuts last month, a 25% increase from the February, according to Challenger, Gray and Christmas. Artificial intelligence was cited as the reason for 15,341 of those cuts, about 25% of the total.
