Two things.

> If you don’t use this new stupid AI thing you will fall behind. If you haven’t totally updated your workflow you are worth 0.

When I see this on any social platform, that is a sign that a VC / investor already invested or likely over-invested in said product and is manipulating emotions to shill their portfolio companies.

This is a tired tactic repeated and recycled tens of thousands of times over and over again and the first sense is to ignore them.

> That said, if you have a job where you create complexity for others, you will be found out. The days of rent seekers are coming to an end. But not because there will be no more rent seeking, it’s because rent seeking is a 0 sum game and you will lose at it to bigger players.

This is why many here are realizing the uncomfortable truth about why complexity over simplicity was celebrated. Of course job security.

But it turns out that the low hanging fruit at those companies that added close to no value LLMs were enough to achieve "AGI" internally; (meaning layoffs in this case).

The jobs of knowledge workers will still be there, but the big money just went into data centers (and not overpaying for more knowledge workers).

The truth is in the middle.
