This part is interesting if thinking about other ratios that could develop. > Sometimes it’s easier to spot a trophy job in retrospect. For example, when someone has a trophy job and its status drops, their desire to do it decreases a lot. It’s common for people to lose motivation when they’re unhappy with their job's substance, but with trophy jobs, satisfaction is tied most to status (e.g. of their role, the company, industry). So the current jobs that supposedly could soon be replaced by ML/AI will or are dropping in status, possibly also in valuation and satisfaction with perceived substance. What's funny is that the actual substance of work and expertise hasn't changed. Even if I had a quickly responding LLM, I'd still be tweaking inputs, outputs and reinterpreting to make it as I see fit. Not much if at all easier than just writing it. I suppose these could become high substance, low status jobs (always were?). Artists are mixed in that their status level depends on which circle you talk with.
