Raise the tax on the remaining people who are the ones making the decisions on who should be laid off or fired. . and if the AI hopes and dreams come true, raising the retirement age will be fruitless as there will be no jobs other than commodity labor jobs.

good luck to us. .
I do not think that AI would destroy the jobs market as you think it will. Believe new jobs will be created in areas we have no clue where they will come from.
