What this comparison shows
On the topic of AI-Driven Worker Displacement, EU AI Act is classified as silent and Executive Order 14110 on Safe, Secure, Trustworthy AI as implicit. The editorial verdict is asymmetric. One regime addresses the topic explicitly while the other covers it only implicitly or not at all; this is a likely site of regulatory arbitrage and a candidate for comparative-law follow-up.
Contested question: Should displacement governance attach to (a) AI providers (originator liability), (b) AI deployers (use-context liability), or (c) state-level retraining + transition programmes (collectivised response)? Each regime allocates the transition burden differently.
