This is the quiet beginning of the professional class collapse.
Microsoft is sending the clearest signal yet:
AI is now good enough to replace mid-tier knowledge workers - not tomorrow, not someday - now.
These weren’t junior interns. These were credentialed, vetted, salaried lawyers. Some with years at the company. Gone.
Why?
Because they were replaceable in structure but expensive in cost.
AI doesn’t need sleep, healthcare, or a paycheck.
It can draft contracts, flag compliance, analyze risk, and scale instantly. What it can’t yet do with precision, it now does well enough to remove the need for 3–7 year associates.
And here’s the deeper truth: This is not isolated to law.
Every mid-tier professional sector - finance, consulting, operations, HR - is now exposed. The illusion of security in corporate credentialism is dissolving. Not because AI hates humans but because humans created a system optimized for cost, not dignity.
The future won’t be AI replacing low-skill labor.
It will be AI hollowing out the middle of the pyramid - the exact zone people were told would always be safe.
Safe is over. Efficient is here.
And the shockwave hasn’t even begun.
