>I wish I could share this joy with the people who are fearful about the changes agents are bringing.
The 'fear' is about losing ones livelihood and getting locked out of homeownership and financial security. its not complicated. life is actually largely determined by your access to capital, despite whatever fresh coping strategy the afflicted (and the afflicting) like to peddle.
the quality of life versus capital availability is very non-linear. there is a step-change around the $500k mark where you reach 'orbital velocity', where as long as you dont suffer severe misfortune or make mistakes, you will start accelerating upwards (albeit very slowly.)
under that line, you are constantly having to fight 'gravity'.
basically everyone in tech is openly or quietly aiming to get there, and LLMs have made that trek ever more precarious than before.
