Welcome to the "update culture".
To my opinion software developers are now being assessed on the number of updates they output and not on the quality of the work. You can update your phone and the next day the same apps can have a new update waiting. It is ridiculous 
The more we progress, and the more we are supposed to be completely dumb, I thought we were all supposed to become smarter due to this extensive exposure to technology? What's the deal? 
With AI it might only get worse. A lot of people will become so reliant on what it tells them that they will completely forget to think for themselves.
That's likely, yes. But what's the deal with all these people who, to the question of those who are afraid of AI taking up most jobs, answer that it's like all earlier new technologies, it will make the lower-end, "automatable" jobs obsolete, and in turn create even more new jobs. Except that this premise implies that people are actually going to switch en masse from less "intellectual" jobs to more intellectual ones (as we have experienced in the past). But this premise fails to consider that people are going, in majority, to be too dumb for that, and that what we now consider like "unusable" output from ChatGPT stuff may very well, not particularly improve in quality, but be considered like of higher and higher quality due to the continuous lowering of our standards.
Just a thought. 
What I have experienced in the past was that many of the new jobs were less "intellectual" than the jobs that the "suits" in their
perceived view of the then current state of technology, decided had become obsolete.
The "suits" themselves were hardly intellectual giants.
The existing workload didn't go away because the existence of some technology somewhere, as those wondrous new devices were not "born full grown from the sea foam, like unto Aphrodite, then delivered by magic carpets to where they were required", but took years to implement.
Most of those keeping the old stuff going were made redundant, after devising ingenious modifications to make 30-plus year-old equipment work something like the wonders the "suits" had promised their Masters.
Those few remaining were "run off their feet" trying to maintain services which were still mainstream, using equipment which was never designed for unattended service.
Further afield, other "suits" were even consigning mainstream trade qualifications to the rubbish bin, including Carpenters, Electricians, & Plumbers.
The new "more intellectual" favourites were IT & BMAs.
Now, the few remaining "Tradies" are "small business people" & "charge like wounded bulls" for their services.
