Say there used to be 100 jobs in some company, all executing on the vision of a small handful of people. And then this shift happens. Now there are only 10 jobs at that company, still executing on the vision of the same handful of people.
90 people are now unemployed, each with a 10x boost to whatever vision they've been neglecting since they've been too busy working at that company. Some fraction of those are going to start companies doing totally new things--things you couldn't get away with doing until you got that 10x boost--things for which there is no training data (yet).
And sure, maybe AI gets better and eats those jobs too, and we have to start chasing even more audacious dreams... but isn't that what technology is for? To handle the boring stuff so we can rethink what we're spending our time on?
Maybe there will have to be a bit of political upheaval, maybe we'll have to do something besides money, idk, but my point is that 10x everywhere opens far more doors than it shuts. I don't think this is that, but if this is that, then it's a very good thing.
So far it has seemed necessary to compel many to work in furtherance of the visions of few (otherwise there was not enough labor to make meaningful progress on anyone's vision). Probably at least a few of those you'd classify as drones aren't displaying any vision because the modern work environment has stifled it.
If AI can do the drone work, we may find more vision among us than we've come to expect.
EVERYTHING is upturned. "All other things solved" includes robotics. It's a 10x everywhere.
