This is giving too much credit to LLM. I think LLMs are great and it is incredibly useful both in personal and professional settings. However, it exist on a separate plane than human workers in the tools category.
Sooner or later, people will find out that LLMs only overlaps with existing human hierarchy (e.g. junior dev X%, senior dev Y%, etc), but almost never 100%. If it was 100% to a certain position, you are probably using the humans wrong to begin with there - since humans have one of the most priced thing that I don't see an single ounce out of LLMs: initiative
It's hard to show initiative without a pulse. Most agents don't have that (yet). But can't be too hard to build.
Well I think that's the next trillion dollar question, if you can figure it out.
We don't need to know the entire knowledge base of mankind to want or know what to do next. It points to an entirely separate architecture than LLM.
