Making way for new hires is a virtuous circle. Making way for AI driven de-hires and no new starters is killing the future.
We need a Butlerian Jihad because we need future wage earners to exist. If people don't have jobs, who is buying the goods and services? AI job displacement impoverishes everyone.

When you travel around the world, you often see jobs that exist in one country but not in another, for multiple reasons but including automation or self-serve, etc.
It is impossible for us to be confident about what specific jobs (or activities) humans will do 15+ years, but we also know that people need a way to exchange something of value to get something of value and that jobs provide a sense of purpose that people might otherwise not know how to fill.
I have gradually learned to see life like this: we harm the world by making money, then compensate for it by spending it. If someone wants to opt out of this, i see nothing wrong about it. Through my 26 years of career i haven't seen any money made without making the world worse off.
Indeed, but in most cases those people only paid because they fell into delusion/were tricked by someone/had an intention to harm others using the product. Or sometimes just by mistake.

How do you ‘harm the world’ by producing something of value that someone else will voluntarily pay for with their own money?

Externalities and cost savings.
