Doesn't bode well for all of us meatbags, actually. AI might now be better mathematicians (if that's even true for now). But if progress continues, it might be a better <your job here>, and even worse, wife, husband, parents. Black mirror territory.

Another pop culture reference: in the first book of the "The Three-Body Problem" trilogy by Liux Cixin, physicists get depressed by having their field of work blocked.

Pretty much the inverse situation, but also the same situation - having your field of expertise completely disrupted. Anyone would be troubled.
