AI ทำลายประเทศ: เงินไหลออก งานหาย ไทยเสียเปรียบ !?

Summary

The argument is that the AI wave may be an illusion of progress: firms use it to cut costs while national income does not rise and purchasing power contracts.

Thai AI spending leaves the country as licence and service fees, because there is no domestic AI company of scale.

The trap that follows: not adopting means falling behind, and adopting means the money goes abroad.

Key points

1. 01

   Cutting costs and creating value are different

   If every firm cuts costs by cutting people, national income does not rise.

2. 02

   Licence fees are a continuous leak

   Unlike a one-off equipment purchase, a monthly service fee flows out every year without end.

3. 03

   No single company can escape the trap

   One firm cannot choose not to adopt, which means the remedy has to be at policy level.

4. 04

   Shrinking purchasing power is the feedback

   The people laid off are the customers who disappear — the same point as the AI trap talk.
