> Ideally you want your luddite fired...

The luddite is the person holding everything together.

Like the office maid who looks like doing nothing but keeping morale high and everybody's sanity intact.

You can hold everything together and not be a luddite.

No, the luddite is the person in one bad location on the continuum, opposite the AI psychotic on the other bad end of the spectrum. The person holding everything together is the one applying wisdom to the use of tools for the things they are good at while avoiding the things they are bad at, rather than blindly following one ideology or its opposite.
