AI Verified Mostly verified via another reliable source, not the supplied Broadband Breakfast page. The National Press Club’s April 29, 2026 report attributes to Liz Shuler that unregulated AI represents “the single biggest threat to working people of our lifetime” and separately quotes: “There is no worker, no industry [that] this does not touch” and “Every job is now a technology job. Period.” ([press.org](https://www.press.org/newsroom/afl-cios-shuler-says-ai-will-be-labors-next-big-battleground)) The Broadband Breakfast URL contains only a shortened version of the latter (“There is no worker this does not touch” / “Every job is now a technology job”), so the exact combined wording is supported by the Press Club source rather than the provided URL.
