The article doesn't really mention this, but it would be far more realistic, constructive and pleasant to focus on how we can all reduce our work hours with AI rather than straight out mass unemployment. In fact I think political movements that focused on that would gain a lot of traction, just like social democracy emerged out of the industrial revolution.

Or at least, how about five-day workweeks paired with three-day weekends?

The continued existence of socialism after its complete moral and intellectual demolition in the 20th century is profoundly depressing. Let us not walk on the road to serfdom, please! Remember Hayek! Remember the Khmer Rouge! "Socialism" is the antisemitism of foolish intellectuals.
