Rohan Paul@rohanpaul_ai · XNYU Stern商学院估值教授Aswath Damodaran指出，AI的10-15万亿美元可寻址市场如果成功实则“可怕”。原因在于：AI作为工具的市场远小于替代人类的市场；只有AI取代人类，才能实现这一规模。若成真，半数白领将失业，社会面临收入丧失和人生意义缺失。他在播客中还讨论了TAM陷阱、AI单位经济学、增长伴随再投资可能破坏价值，以及AI正将部分科技巨头从轻资产公司转变为基础设施公司等观点。
The $10-$15 trillion total addressable market for AI， if it is successful， is actually "terrifying".
- The famous "Dean of Valuation"， Professor Aswath Damodaran， of NYU Stern School of Business.
The reason： AI as a tool is a much smaller market； AI as a replacement for human-jobs is where the giant market story comes from.
"The best-case scenario for AI， that $10 to $15 trillion market， will happen if ONLY it replaces people.
If AI is a tool， it's going to be a much smaller market than if AI replaces people. So， the stories we're telling about $10， $20 or $25 trillion markets are actually terrifying stories for the rest of the world.
Why？ Because if that story comes true， half of all white-collar people are going to lose their jobs. And what are they going to do instead？ Who's going to come up with the income to buy the products and services？
If AI works as well as it's supposed to and replaces people， how do we deal with that as a society？ Because people lose their jobs. Not only do you lose your income， you lose your life's meaning.."
