It's silly, who wouldn't answer yes to the question "would you like to finish your task faster?". The real trick is to produce more but by putting less effort than before.

People who enjoy the process of completing the task?
Maybe we'd see "coding gyms" like how white collar workers have gyms for the physical exercise they're not getting from their work.
codeforces and topcoder have existed for years
I salaried employees who are paid by time, and are paying their own Anthropic bills.
Initially there is perhaps a mitigating advantage of briefly impressing ourselves or others with output, but that will quickly fade into the new normal.
Net result: employee paying significant money to produce more, but capturing none of that value.
If you finish faster, you'll be given another task. You're not freeing yourself sooner or spending less effort, you're working the same number of hours for the same pay. Your reward is not joining the ranks of those laid off.
If you are paid hourly and not per task than what is the point in finishing your task faster?
