Conjecture

A falling labour share is a measurable early sign of the enfeeblement trap, but a lagging one: in Anthropic's extreme case labour's share drops from about 60% to 45% only once self-improving AI is already deployed, which is when Greenblatt expects the correction loop to be failing. Governance that waits for the income data arrives after the takeoff it was meant to govern, so the hooks must be built before the signal appears.

    Anthropic supplies the numbers; reading it as a lagging safety signal is mine.
