Article context shows that "it" refers to the notion that AI will create jobs; Fortune paraphrases Gawdat as saying that idea is "100% crap" and presents his remarks as a warning that AI will wipe out jobs and replace even CEOs. That makes the quote directly relevant to whether AI creates more jobs than it destroys and gives a determinable stance signal.

In context, “it” refers to the claim that AI will create jobs. The Fortune article presents Gawdat as rejecting that idea and warning that AI will replace workers, including CEOs, so he is opposing the statement that AI will create more jobs than it destroys.

Verified. The Fortune article dated August 6, 2025 contains both quoted fragments and attributes them to Mo Gawdat: “My belief is it is 100% crap,” and later, “The one thing they don’t think of is AI will replace them too.” A transcript of the August 4, 2025 Diary of a CEO episode also shows those same lines at roughly 00:19:55 and 00:22:18, so the ellipsis is a faithful omission rather than a fabrication.

Quote attributed to Mo Gawdat (2025) calling the idea of AI creating jobs "100% crap." Web search confirms this from Fortune (Aug 6, 2025) at the provided URL. Multiple sources (CNBC, Yahoo Finance, Windows Central) corroborate the exact phrases including "100% crap" and "the one thing they don't think of is AI will replace them too." Vote "against" is correctly aligned -- Gawdat explicitly rejects that AI will create new jobs and warns even CEOs will be replaced. Year 2025 is correct. Quote is relevant to statement 389.
