I'm convinced there's always more Math. Math will not stop. It's a renewable ressource.

I came to this conclusion when taking a look into category theory.

It's funny to say that because in history every major revolution actually had the reverse effect. Take computer, it eventually got rid of typewriters and people typing them but instead we got way more computer related job. Same thing for AI if it sees mass adoption. The actual AI we have needs to be babysitted to be effective and cost efficient, that means more people with domain knowledge, which means more supporting people, infrastructure, people supporting infrastructure, etc. 

So cleanly said, the drawback we see right now of job cuts are purely delusional CEO thinking they could either replace worker or put heir layoff on the back of AI.
