The surest sign that someone's job needs to be deleted is if they feel their job can be done by AI. If your work can be done by an LLM, you're simply not doing work that's worth doing.
I disagree. If anyone genuinely thinks that their own job can be done by an LLM, either:
A) that job should be streamlined out of existence
B) they have a fundamental misunderstanding of what an LLM is capable of achieving, such as if their job involves meaningless drudgery, and they don't know enough about LLMs to realise that LLMs don't even have the capacity for thought necessary to consistently follow simple heuristics without threatening nuclear annihilation.
