Datacenters are very automated. They already don't require many people and they're going to be needing less and less humans in them going forward.

Semiconductor manufacturing is also very heavily automated.

That is my point, llms replace more jobs than they theoretically create (datacenter/semiconductor manufacturing demand).

Datacenters were very automated when RAM was infinite. As the world becomes compute-constrained, the economics may increase the demand for smart hands mixing-and-matching server components to turn two broken servers into one working server.
