Planes with autopilots can fly cheaper and "better" than human pilots. We still have human pilots.

I want a lawyer who can do their work more effectively because they have assistance from LLM-powered tools.

I might turn to LLM-only assistance for very low-stakes legal questions, but I'd much rather have an LLM-enhanced professional for the stuff that matters.

On the other hand, would you rather have a math professor calculate the square root of a large number for you, or would you use a calculator?

I'd rather have a math professor teach me why I'm doing a square root of a large number. Same thing applies to lawyers. All this talk about automating away complex professions is just that. LLMs are tools people use, not lawyers, doctors or professors.
