I read this pmarca essay and apart from saying "people been scared of tech for ages", "it's hard to measure the problem" and the quote below he doesn't really address AI doomers arguments. I like his essays but got deeply disappointed with this one. https://pmarca.substack.com/p/why-ai-will-save-the-world

imho the main X-risk was sufficiently addressed, but the one thing that stuck out to me was the glossing over of "productivity != local compensation". don't think the essay confronted the imperative to maintain a domestic consumer base of physical goods/services over the global nonscarcity of productive software.

Which argument do you think addressed the X-Risk properly? Maybe I missed something
