Again, in the fullness of time, if they manage to become ever closer to something we call AGI, they will. Storytellers and visionaries are very different from builders and business people. These are just different types of disciplines and different individuals.

And so the people that tell these big visionary stories about how LLM companies or AGI is going to crush all of software, they're not actual business people. They're not actual builders. And they don't realize that businesses, consumers have real practical problems that need solving. And it takes them a really, really long time to adopt these technologies.

I think we're going to see a giant rise of robotics in many different areas. A lot of blue-collar work will probably be done by robotics. The one thing that's important to say while I'm celebrating this human work being done is that technology has always put humans out of work when the work has been dangerous shit and demeaning.

Whether it's individuals on factory floors where they lose limbs, humans dying in mines, So much of these types of work that humans fucking hated, that actually killed them, has been replaced by technology. And all the while, the population of the world has increased, GDP has increased, longevity has increased. We have no reason to believe that we're not still on that same trajectory.

They'll learn new things over time. When I got into the technology industry, I was making crappy websites, writing HTML by hand. Now we have so many different ways to generate websites. You certainly have seen so much web designer work disrupted by Wix and Squarespace and Shopify and all of these tools and technologies and frameworks.

There is no such thing. There's no such thing. Even Apple don't have it. Apple very famously championed their patented iPhone technologies. And yet Samsung came and actually beat them on many different criteria. Technology is a cat and mouse game. It's about who builds it first and brings it to market, helps customers understand and adopt it. Always been the case.
