There is a lot of truth in No Silver Bullet and I had the same idea in my mind.
Downside is there is much more non essential busy work because of which people had their jobs and now loads of those people will lose the job.
People who do work on real essential complexity of systems are far and between. People who say things like "proper professionals will always have work" are utter assholes thinking mostly that "they are those proper professionals".
In reality AI will be like F1 racing team not needing pit workers and have only drivers, how many drivers are there like 20 so it is 10 teams each having 2 drivers. Each team has 300-1000 people that do all the other things.
If you go to corporate level let's say 1 person working on essential complexity requires 10-20 people doing all kinds of non essential stuff that will be taken over by AI, or to be realistic instead of 10-20 people that person will need headcount of 5.
That is still 15 people out of job - are those people able to take over some essential complexity in a different company or different area of the same company, some would but it is also if they would like to do it. So those people will be pushed around or end up jobless, bitter whatever.
That is not great future coming in.
