    It’s like machines replacing farm hands. It’s the end of feudalism because the peasants are not needed anymore. The feudal lords won’t make the profits but the factory owners and the mining owners.

    If the AI companies are the mines, what are the factories?

    With AI, essentially everybody starts at middle management or above because the grunt work is automated. Now it’s all about allocating resources, acquiring clients and creating new products.

    Somebody has to monitor the AIs and write the prompts. It’s middle management for everybody.
