    Why would AI need human tools? We need them, and if we delegate our lives and jobs to AIs, then we will be all alone. Do we want that?

      That's exactly my question.

      If there are fewer engineers, then there will be fewer dev tool companies, and fewer managers, etc. meaning fewer Slack, Gmail, MSFT, Zoom subscriptions, etc.

      Companies are showing good profits, but if every company downsizes, then every company loses... right?

      So, what happens now? (To the economy, lets say.)

        Likely some combination of feudalism and Oligarchy.

          And what happens, when enough percent of the population has nothing to lose?

            I’m guessing something like Hunger Games with robot enforcers to keep the peasants in line

      Is it really delegation if we aren’t given a choice?
