Comment by David Sacks
White House AI and crypto czar
One camp sees a 'job apocalypse' and mass unemployment ahead; the other sees a great leap forward for society. Put me in the second camp — with a few caveats.

Quote attributed to David Sacks (White House AI czar). The Benzinga source URL returned HTTP 403 to direct fetch, but a web search independently confirmed the exact quote — "One camp sees a 'job apocalypse' and mass unemployment ahead; the other sees a great leap forward for society. Put me in the second camp — with a few caveats." — from this same Benzinga (May 2026) article reporting Sacks endorsing the Goldman Sachs CEO's optimistic, anti-"job apocalypse" outlook. Vote alignment: statement is "AI will create more jobs than it destroys" and Sacks's vote is "for"; Sacks explicitly places himself in the optimistic ("great leap forward") camp rejecting mass unemployment, so "for" is consistent. Year 2026 is current and relevant. All checks pass.
