Norwegians have a saying: “Den som er ferdig utlært, er ikke utlært – men ferdig.” Meaning if you are finished with learning the one that is finished is you. Typical scandinavic hard cold truth…

I understand the frustration of spending years nurturing a skill and then seeing its value decline.But this isn’t really an LLM problem. The same thing happened to factory workers, typists, draftsmen, and many others before. The technology changes, but the underlying issue is the economic system we live in, where the market can suddenly decide that something you’ve spent years mastering is worth much less than before.

LLMs are not creating that dynamic. They’re just accelerating it.
