We have a lot fewer farmers now than we had had in the 19th century. Which is overall a good thing, because traditional farm labor sucked and had low productivity, but the people who are pushing LLMs don’t want to increase the population’s wealth, they want to impoverish it (kinda like what happened in the 19th century after farm labor productivity increased massively). And in contrast to increasing farm labor productivity, LLMs don’t even really do much that we really need, it’s practically useless for a lot of what it’s currently used for. LLMs are bullshit generators.
Though I guess it does shine a light on how many jobs weren’t really doing anything useful in the first place. Bullshit generators for bullshit jobs.
