According to Bloomberg columnist Devin Ramil, the real danger of artificial intelligence is not the "killer robots" from science fiction movies, but rather the pressure that the unemployment it creates will place on the public finances of states. This issue was brought up at the International Monetary Fund (IMF) meetings held in Washington in December 2025.
It is noted that even a relatively small increase in global unemployment rates could cause massive devastation to state budgets. As revenues decline, governments' tax revenues will fall, while on the other hand, increased unemployment benefits and retraining (vocational training) costs will significantly drive up public spending.
Ramil likens the current integration of artificial intelligence to the First Industrial Revolution, which occurred in the 17th and 18th centuries and displaced peasants from their lands. It is reminded that because the population could not quickly adapt to the market changes, decades of economic and social instability followed the First Industrial Revolution.
