   Just the kind of dismissive response about AI's impact on jobs I'd expect from the leader of the <checks notes> party of workers?! https://www.theguardian.com/politics/live/2025/jan/13/keir-starmer-labour-ai-yvette-cooper-tulip-siddiq-latest-politics-news-live?page=with:block-678509688f08a644578d730a#block-678509688f08a644578d730a

     @adrianhon I was in the room when a left-wing party member asked a leader how we're going to solve the problem of lorry drivers losing their jobs when autonomous cars become a thing, and the response was "well, people are getting older, we're going to need a lot of nurses", so unfortunately I no longer take it for granted that someone with a Big Idea is going to notice or care for small details.

     (FWIW the leader in question lost the relevant vote back then)
