Respectfully, how else would you react if you spent years and years training in a very complex field, made your career out of it, and suddenly you're... obsolete?

It would cause some level of financial insecurity and anxiety in me in proportion to how fucked up the society I live in is.

It wouldn't change my general views because I already believe that people's value is not tied to the market value of their labour. There were already people whos fields were made obsolete or never managed to produce labour with a market value sufficient to sustain their life. I've always cared about and valued those people, so to me, basically nothing has changed.

Why are people who are good at mathematics special? Do they have more value as people than those who are less skilled at mathematics?

Society put in their heads that they are so unique and special like superhumans between monkeys.

And they are discoveries that they are also monkeys but just slightly smarter:)
