But where will office workers displaced by AI leave? Industrialization brought demand for factory work (and later grew service sector), but I can't see what new opportunities AI is creating. There are only so many service people AI billionaires need to employ.
You realize this was the exact argument with the tractor / steam engine, electricity, and the computer?
No, you cannot ignore every argument by claiming someone else made it before. Make an actual response.
What new opportunities does the LLM create for the workers it may displace? What new opportunities did neural machine translation create for the workers it displaced?
In what way is a text-generation machine that dominates all computer use alike with the steam engine?
The steam engine powered new factories workers could slave away in, demanded coal that created mining towns. The LLM gives you a data centre. How many people does a data centre employ?
