My point of concern is that this domain may shrink to the empty set. There is no law of economics that says this will, with certainty, not happen.

And while AI might be less power efficient than me on some tasks, power is cheap enough that I don't think the energy price floor affords my continued survival.

My argument is this is, as presented, baseless.

Again, slaves were cheap enough. Industry is cheap enough. Yet global labour rates remain far from homogenous.
