You can couch it different words but the basic shape of all these is the same, whether it was voice artists earlier, IT outsourcing, or now disciplines like mathematics. A small set of people (relatively) who were the primary source of getting something done, suddenly find that technology has made it accessible for others to do what they specialized in. It's a tough pill to swallow and it is natural to not be comfortable with this for most people.

However, as it has happened in the past, once there is a technological wedge, technological advances will move forward, whether some community likes it or not, and human ingenuity will find ways such that the benefit is greater than the risk.
