    If AI Can Do Every Job, Why Not Keep Paying the Human?

    Hi, I'm Connor with Honor - message me here! If AI can do every job better than people, why is the plan to fire the people? Connor MacIvor proposes a different answer: keep paying the human. AI is now being pointed at hard mathematics, biology and the work itself. In Connor's read, the gains will be enormous, and most of them will land at the top. The people up there might lose half a fortune in a bad stretch and still be wealthy. Everyone else gets told to brace for an uncomfortable period. In this episode of View from the Ground Floor, Connor asks who actually carries that discomfort, and what it would take to get everyone through it. What you will hear: - The corporate AI playbook as Connor sees it: an AI partner learns exactly what an employee does, the AI replicates it, and the human is let go. - His alternative: if AI really is better at every task, keep the human and keep paying the human, because people without income cannot buy what companies sell. - Why waiting on government programs is not a plan Connor likes, and why he is not asking for handouts. He is asking for rules and a plan. - 2008, from the kitchen tables: good people who were paying their mortgage, did not cause the collapse, and still paid the price. - The Transition Moonshot: Connor compares it to the big prize efforts aimed at the planet and the climate, and asks for one aimed at getting people across the gap from now through 2027. - The bottom of the elevator shaft, and the people who just want to reach the first floor. This is episode 2 of the Transition Moonshot thread. It is an idea, offered in the open. Tell Connor what you think. Chapters: 00:00 AI, mathematics and who gains 01:10 The Moonshot prizes, and the one that is missing 01:56 The bottom of the elevator shaft 02:10 A Moonshot for the transition, now through 2027 02:58 Train the AI, then let the human go 03:15 Why not keep paying the human? 03:56 Who stays and who gets replaced 06:41 To save everyone, there has to be a Moonshot 07:05 2008: they did not cause any of this 07:41 The whole stack, not just real estate 09:14 Fix the uncomfortable zone 10:17 Let me know what you think More from Connor on AI, business and the transition: ConnorWithHonor.com Youtube Channels: Conner with Honor - real estate Home Muscle - fat torching From first responder to real estate expert, Connor with Honor brings honesty and integrity to your Santa Clarita home buying or selling journey.

    A 3-Day Workweek for Who? View from the Ground Floor

    Hi, I'm Connor with Honor - message me here! A 3-day workweek sounds beautiful from the top floor. Connor MacIvor answers it from the ground floor. In this View from the Ground Floor episode, Connor reacts to Jeff Bezos predicting that AI productivity may let some people support a family while working three days a week. The problem is the timing: Amazon has also cut about 30,000 corporate roles. Some people do not get a three-day week. They get a zero-day week. Connor connects that promise to Workday's October 2026 workforce data, where basic AI prompting demand is falling while applied AI building and automation skills are rising. The useful question is not whether AI is real. It is who gets the upside, who carries the transition, and whether workers and small businesses are given a real bridge. The episode includes the Stan example, the Transition Moonshot, the difference between hating AI and holding human decision-makers accountable, chess and Go as human-to-human value, and a real estate note on assumable loans and the gap buyers still have to solve.

    The Machine Didn't Sign The Layoff

    Hi, I'm Connor with Honor - message me here! Connor MacIvor explains why the machine did not sign the layoff. AI may do real work, but people still choose the deployment, the savings story, the paperwork, and the transition plan.

    The AI Boom Is A Housing Tract, And You Are Phase 3

    Hi, I'm Connor with Honor - message me here! Connor MacIvor explains the AI boom through a brand new housing tract, an HOA turnover bill, a house flip, a 3-inch needle, and a lease that should travel with the job. This View from the Ground Floor episode is not anti-AI. Connor uses AI every day. The point is that a working technology can still push transition costs onto people who entered late, trusted the sales story, or had no practical way to exit early.
