The world’s richest man has been empowered by the US government to gleefully lay off thousands of federal workers with no published plan beyond “delete government agencies” and his team is using AI as part of the execution. I’m skeptical that there are people in charge who think about anything other than consolidating their own power and lining their own pockets. I think the only AI taxes that might come into play are those that steer people towards services run by those already in power and disincentivize setting up your own AI infrastructure.

The world’s richest man got handed this mandate by someone that was elected by millions of US citizens and he explicitly told them he will do this. Enough people in the US want to see this happen.

I don't know if enough people would not agree to highly tax the corporations if they're themselves out of work and need the money to survive.
