Why the difference that I’ve seen the exact opposite? It brutally reinforces it. It’s no longer the ability to do a task that is valuable, it’s the ability to understand what tasks need to be done.

Yes. So only 2% (down from 90%)of the population is needed in farming now to produce for the rest of 98%.

That is fine because there are other parts of the value chain these 98% people fit into.

With the development of Ai I don't see new areas to graduate into.

So you are right: there will be people left. But it is not clear what the masses can up skill themselves to do.
