He might need a doctor by then. But it's not a devasting insight;
large amounts of grunt knowledge-based working will be done by machines
pretty soon.

Replacing grunt work with machines has been done for 100s and 100s of years. We invented the plough to remove or decrease grunt work.
As science progresses, more and more grunt work will be automated and we'll be happier and richer for it.
People will find other jobs, human desire is limitless, and the world will prosper.
