I'm happy to herd idiots all my life if they come out of it smarter than they went in. The real tragedy with current LLM agents is that they're effectively stateless, and so all the effort of "educating" them feels wasted.

Once continuous learning is solved, I predict the problem addressed by TFA to become orders of magnitude bigger: What's the motivation for anyone to teach a person if an LLM can learn it much faster, will work for you forever, and won't take any sick days or consider changing careers?

At that point, I think it'll be time to admit to ourselves that capitalism is over.

The only reason we somewhat made it work is due to the interdependence between labor and capital. Once that's broken, the wheels will start falling off.
