Maybe by the time juniors are needed and seniors are gone, seniors can just directly connect to Claude via some sort of neural interface. Claude can proceed to increase its training dataset by harvesting all the precious information and memories with each new neural connection. That way, when all of our meatware rots in the ground, and any memory of our existence fades into the void, we may continue to serve the one true God, the God we created, even in death.
I think the outcomes are very hard to predict, it depends a lot on both economical factors, technological factors (how much will LLMs still improve beyond benchmaxxing), societal factors, etc.
