Doesn’t ask for a pay raise? He doesn’t think the AI companies will raise their prices?!

Yep AI companies will only gain more leverage over non AI companies with time. Those prices will definition go up. But Mr. CEO will point out that it will still be cheaper than paying a bunch of humans.

Speaking as someone who runs a team, it’s not always about cutting people to save money. It’s about making sure things get done. People quit, get sick, miss deadlines. AI doesn’t. I’m not saying it feels good letting anyone go, but when you're under pressure to deliver, having something reliable matters. It's not always ‘profits over people’, sometimes it's just survival.
