It definitely seems as though This Is It.

It seems as though we’ve finally reached the long-feared moment, tipping point, when A.I. productivity gains begin to influence the job market. And for it happen in the context of a war and the inflation caused by an uptick in oil prices is kind of a lose-lose situation.

He could go either way. He could see a souring economy as an excuse to get worse. Or, if his poll numbers get really bad he might just calm the shit down a tiny bit.
It really could go either way.
Only time will tell, I suppose.
