The fundamental issue isn't unemployment due to automation, but the fact that society cannot benefit from unemployment.

It should be something for us to celebrate, because it means greater freedom for humans to pursue something else rather than spending time doing drudgery.

Put it another way, the issue is that resources are not shared more equitably. This is especially egregious considering that LLMs are trained on all human knowledge. We've all been contributing to this enterprise, and what we may end up getting in return is unemployment.
