I don't think it's being sold that way.

It's a very complicated subject with several meta-conversations, and things being the way they are, a lot of people need to project arguments onto "They"

Here, we see a misinterpretation: its not "it's going to replace profession wholesale", it's a simple causal chain "hey you do 30% more work with GPT" => well then you need ~30% less workers => affect employment.

And we can run out a centithread of chastising any number of groups under the sun of maximalist claims, ex. from here, directly spin into "well _some_ people argue for complete replacement of artists", spin that into AGI doomers, etc.
