At somepoint CNC won't need humans making things in CAD. You'll just tell and AI what to great and it'll model it and plug it all in.
I believe there will be job loss in both categories too. Obviously that leads to inequality as well. Sure, some productivity increase will be helpful, but after a certain point if demand doesn't also increase it will result in headcount cuts.
I feel bad for the next generation. I'm not sure what ro tell my kid to study when they get older. It seems the only places with longer-term stability will be with artificial or natural moats. Maybe law (litigation), law enforcement, or medicine. Maybe a business degree since that could be applied to many different things. I don't know. The choice seemed easy for me - I was good with computers and logic, and IT paid well.

Anyone can patch random amounts of text together and call it a book. Will it be good enough for people to read? Only if the person doing it is good enough to create an appealing story. The same is still valid for AI: some people know how to use it better and will get better results while 99% will be trash and ignored. This won't ever change, imo.
