If I am hiring someone, I want to know that when the internet goes down that they can still do something. I want to be able to talk to them about the job without having to wait for them to run my requests through their robot. I want people who can think, not rearrange words based on an algorithm.
And if I was feeling less generous: Bob learned how to ask a robot to do his job? What the fuck do I need Bob for then? Just give me the agent he trained to help him, and he can go find a job somewhere else.
Learning how to use an agent is not “useful to society”. It helps Bob cut corners, but doesn’t extend him. How does society benefit from a summarised email?

Even before AI, when the internet went down I went home. You think I can code without references, stack overflow, etc.? No way, waste of my time
