I do not think the leaders believe that AI is going to replace most jobs. They definitely believe that they can use the threat of AI taking most jobs to further exploit the working class.

They really do though. Like, you're assuming a level of rationality that they don't possess.

Yeah that's mostly a justification for layoffs. They're not competitive robotics manufacturing AI that cuts down the need for enormous chunks of capital for factory floor space + varied equipment + switching things up to change what you're producing. They're not competitive on the large computational engineering models important for R&D (which they're not doing either) and iterating new rocket engines. It's a giant grift, but people need to be careful not to universalize the values of Silicon Valley AI companies.
