For basically all the existing data we have, efficiency improvements always result in more work, not less.

Humans never say "oh neat I can do thing with 10% of the effort now, guess I'll go watch tv for the rest of the week", they say "oh neat I can do thing with 10% of the effort now, I'm going to hire twice as many people and produce like 20x as much as I was before because there's so much less risk to scaling now."

I think there's enough unmet demand for software that efficiency increases from automation are going to be eaten up for a long time to come.
