Ok 1 long post or several short ones… I which some LLM could help me here.

Years ago people optimized assembly code, even when FORTRAN and c compilers existed. Those people would stubbornly say the compiler/optimizer is not as good.
The fear these NEO-LUDDITES exhibited was that modern technology would overtake their job.
The reality there are more developers now than ever and NO-ONE has to code is assembly language outside of a few compiler developers.
AI is not intelligence its just a more sophisticated optimizer.
LLM can’t think “garbage in garbage out” they are limited to interpolation.
Think of it this way, ANY boring mundane or repetitive aspect of your job can and should be automated away. If that eliminated your job then you are not thinking.

Was deep blue AI or did it just look deeper.
What about modern pruning algos?

Let’s talk PILOTS and Nuclear power plant operators, and self driving cars
1. Do you want to be in a fly-by wire plane?
2. How about FADEC (full authority digital control ) nuclear plant?
3. Fully autonomous self driving car?
Pretty scary hun?
What if I told you that three mile island would never have happened if they just shot all the control room operators 5 mins before the incident. These people testified in front of congress and agreed that the operators actions prevented the plant from (automatically ) shutting down. SAME Thing at Chernobyl.
How many pilots have the skill to fly a plane to minimum Instrument meter-logical conditions without an autopilot? Remember the Korean airlines crew that couldn’t successfully land a plane without instrument approach systems, sad one young girl died. It could have been worse. AND THAT WAS ON A CLEAR DAY. I’m telling you these pilots are not real pilots.
Self driving cars. 40,000 deaths/year in US alone. 2,000,000/year globally. Including multiple friends of mine. Dead gone.
