By design, unfortunately. If they are just assistants, they can't sell the dream of "we're going to replace human labor completely" to the C-suite.

It isn’t a dream, it’s a reality for some of us here and it will be increasingly so for everyone else. Amazingly, USG intervening slowed the dynamic greatly (fortunately?)

The problem is obviously who will be left. There’s a lot of scifi to catch up on.

I think that they are simply evaluated on prompt to solution benchmarks.
