> It is like hiring an army of accountants that have never done math on paper and exclusively let turbotax do all the work.

It's not though. It's fundamentally different because TurboTax will still work with clear deterministic algorithms. We need to see that the jump to AI is not a jump from hand written math to calculators. It's a jump from understanding how the math works to another world of depending on magic machines that spit out numbers that sort of work 90% of the time.

Imagine if Math calculators were just subtly wrong some percentage of the time for use cases that people use dozens or hundreds of times a day. If you could punch in the same math formula 100 times and get more than 1 answer on a calculator, most people wouldn't trust those for serious work.

They probably wouldn't think that the calculator makes them faster either

If calculators did work that way, I'm afraid that people would nevertheless take them up because "it saves so much time", and would develop fancy heuristics to plausibility-test for errors.
