If you work in tech, you will want to read the ~40-page short novel Profession by Isaac Asimov, from 1957.
An unusually intelligent youngster decides they want to be a Registered Computer Programmer as demand for that profession is the highest of all. But he gets rejected... and even though the story was written 70 years ago, it's as if it described the world that could happen with AI, and who the most valuable people of such a world could be.
