You might be a SME for automation, but that doesn't mean you're a SME for art.

My point was that other people have knowledge and expertise you don't. That means you should be having a conversation with them, not condescendingly lecturing them about what the future of their own field is like.

You might be 100% correct that the person you're speaking to will be automated out of a job in 10 years, but given how you describe these people as "overvaluing" themselves and "being in denial", you're likely talking at them about automation, not to them. Of course somebody would be on the defensive when you enter a conversation assuming you know the future of their life's work and believe they overvalue themselves.

Like I said, the people I was talking about work in my field of expertise. I know all the minutiae they know and they are in complete denial, most of them not all. They can't see it yet but it's going to hit like a ton of bricks.
