If AI can do the easiest 50% of our tasks, then it means we will end up spending all of our time on what we previously considered to be the most difficult 50% of tasks. This has a lot of implications, but it does generally result in the job being more interesting overall.

One implication is that when AI providers claim that "AI can make a person TWICE as productive!"

... business owners seem to be hearing that as "Those users should cost me HALF as much!"
