If FTR becomes the norm for high-value, "AI-safe" jobs in the future, what does that mean for the types of intelligence we will cultivate, and further, the incentives of our education?

 Another factor often cited for AI adoption is the margin of error we are likely to accept, or the cost of remediation of a mistake. We could call that, the importance of getting things "first-time-right" (FTR).

It's a musing of mine that scientists may need to have bodies, because scientific intuition about the world requires being in the world, in some non-trivial way. Take Newton's apple - could the intuition of gravitational law have occurred to an intelligence that is not bound in space and time?

One important line may be between occupations that require having a body (the craftsmen) and ones that do not (the analysts). Note that having a body may mean more than having "sensory grounding", i.e. a set of disparate signals coming from sensors.

This is not say there are no painting robots, or self-driving cars; they are just significantly less convincing than artificial financial analysts (even after years of development).

In a report I co-authored with Arthur D. Little, I tried to categorize a few archetypes of intelligence used in big corporations. www.adlittle.com/en/insights/...

The LLM revolution has exposed white collar jobs like never before. Lawyers, consultants, translators, software engineers…Unlike in previous industrial revolutions, the college-educated are affected first - with interesting societal and anthropological consequences.
