In response to someone giddy over an imagined future where the only human job will be critical thinking, I tried to point out that bias may have blinded him to the thinking people already do.
What they are overlooking is the domain-level knowledge which keeps mechanics/electricians/plumbers/welders in trade schools/guilds/product manuals, truck drivers/bus drivers/pilots in trade schools/behind the wheel of specific machines for years at a go, engineers at university/conferences/industry papers/manufacturers data sheets and scientists/mathematicians at university/conferences/academic papers/libraries/research projects for the whole of their careers. They spend their lives to know how to make judgments on the decisions that the non-domain expert doesn’t even credit as a knowledge domain. If society doesn’t treat their particularized expertise as equally valuable, that doesn’t change that it’s the same human skills and effort to learn and gain the expertise to get the desired job done *right*. A lifetime of socialized specialization just so they can be judged on the fields they aren’t experts in.
People think all the time. And people are much more critical about the thinking of those in outgroups than their own friends, even when nearly everyone believes some crazy thing or has a blind spot in their thinking.
But white collar workers fetishize the forms of white collar management: memos, poster boards, diagrams, etc. without recognizing that the mode of education and prestige of the domain have little bearing on the quality of the thinking.
