> Bob learned how to use the agent to do work, which is just as useful to society. Bob used the agent to do the work *of a junior* and it cost him the ability to learn how to do it himself as a senior in the future.

If I am hiring someone, I want to know that when the internet goes down that they can still do _something_. I want to be able to talk to them about the job without having to wait for them to run my requests through their robot. I want people who can think, not rearrange words based on an algorithm. And if I was feeling less generous: Bob learned how to ask a robot to do his job? What the fuck do I need Bob for then? Just give me the agent he trained to help him, and he can go find a job somewhere else. Learning how to use an agent is not “useful to society”. It helps Bob cut corners, but doesn’t extend him. How does society benefit from a summarised email?
