This article is a coping mechanism. What it's really saying is this:

"The thing that LLMs are taking over is easy, we humans still have agency over the hard part."

That's what he's trying to say, and I can tell you, this is not true. Programming was the hard part. That's why we got paid so much. It's the easy jobs that are immune to AI: Gardening, construction work, blue collar jobs,... etc.

Mind you not easy in the sense that the work isn't hard, but easy in the sense that anyone can do it. Those are the jobs that are ironically safe.
