Bridging software with domain-specific needs of its professional users is nothing new: that is how domain-specific professional software gets built. What is new is that the people doing this are being referred to hysterically as "class traitors", when the improvements they're working on will bring massive and widely available benefits to professionals the world over.
While the desire is not new, advancements in LLMs and diffusion models have made this sort of bridging effective and attractive to an unprecedented degree.
Those massively and widely available benefits will continue to deflate the value of human intelligence until even most of innovators currently working on them lose their seats at the table too.
