> This scenario I gave is one in which humans do still have a comparative advantage: we learn faster, so we can get working on new jobs and make a decent amount in each of them before any given AI has time to master the skills needed for that job's tasks by watching us.

That's pretty terrible outcome too. So what if you learn faster, if your "career" will only last 5-10 years and you have to start over. It would be a profoundly unstable and anti-human lifestyle.

That's probably true (say, the Waltons will be a lot poorer), but I think the end state remains the same. Maybe it's just Bezos, Musk, Altman, and two dudes TBD harnessing all the word's resources to build ziggurats to memorialize their own power. They key point is all the wealth will be focused in a very few individuals, with no economic need to spread the wealth around. It doesn't really matter if those individuals are an old or new set.
