AI will be a super-tutor for the curious and a tool to outsource all thinking for the incurious.

The job doesn't pay you to be curious. It pays you to get stuff done. Curiosity makes you jobless. Most of the Silcon Valley people who frequent this website larp as curious people, but are basically incurious status seekers.

We need some curious people. Otherwise nothing gets discovered, including solutions to future problems.

We do. But the would-be modern nobility are quite happy with being a sort of feudal lord.

Fully expecting to get banned for my comment, but I'll just go on. Look at the silicon valley heroes and they're all business types. There's a few rare exceptions.
