Let your imagination run wild, what will we do when we become more productive - go home or build things we can't even imagine yet? If we still want more than what is possible today, then how can we afford to send people home? So many grand challenges are far from being solved - global warming, space colonisation, poverty, AI implementations, public education ... we still need people for a while.

Hmm, you are making good points i would say. On the other hand when you have radical shift in short amount of time, like we can expect with language models that can code, will industries accommodate in same short amount of time? I don't know the answer.
