Relevance Score
An opinion piece challenges Anthropic co-founder Dario Amodei's claim that large-scale wealth creation coincides with job loss and low wages, citing a Palo Alto photo and clustered service businesses as counterexamples. The author notes California's 2025 minimum wage will rise to $16.90/hour (effective 2026) and argues wealth concentration often generates nearby service jobs, questioning simple causation claims.
