The University of Rochester claims AI will make work more human. This is a euphemism for the stripping of all meaningful cognitive labor. The algorithms take the logic. They take the patterns. They take the skill.

Humans are being pushed into the margins. We are being relegated to the scraps of the intellectual process. We are now just the janitors for the black box. We watch the machine and wait for it to fail.

The features of this reality are depressing.

• The removal of intellectual agency.
• The death of the professional class.
• The reduction of humans to error-checkers.
• The automation of thought itself.
