There is cutting costs and scaling. You need 9 other people for scaling. Imaging if you with GPT4 can replace 10 people with 1. What if you keep other 9 and train them to prompt on GPT? Now you have not 10 people working but 100 and a cost of 10.

I guess the follow-up question is: if you do value these 100 units of work (1 employee == 1 unit pre-GPT), why did you only have 10 workers at the beginning? Doesn't it mean that 10 units of work is what you thought was optimal? What are you going to do with 100?

Or maybe you're implying that reducing the costs changes this equation?

It also implies the market can handle, and needs, the scaling. In some industries, like say food services, the problem isn’t lack of people.
