When I read this I began to realize that this has happened quite a few times in the past. The founding fathers expected each other to know Greco-Roman history quite well. Live music and painting were far more lucrative skills in the past. French, Latin, and cursive used to be far more common in pedagogy. Harvard was a Bible school. These things all used to be important until they weren't (or at least greatly diminished). AI is now coming for the last human tasks that can't be done by machines. The real question is whether any people will continue to feel motivated to spend years of study to surpass machines in specific domains
