Your hypothetical assumes that AI will suddenly vanish in its entirety, and we are left picking up the pieces.

Yet even without AI, humanity's most complex creations are not understandable by mere single humans, or even groups of them.

For example, the US Healthcare Insurance system runs on the collective power of humans (and likely an increasing bit of AI), but no one human can understand the system as a whole.
