I think that AGI will change the world, because when it's here, and automations/robots/whatever are doing a lot of the work: I agree with your dread. We're going to see a lot of people with no ability to get work/income, and a lot of people mopping up all the available money, and then...
Then I can't make predictions anymore. But society has to adjust. We can't have a huge number of people that have no way to support themselves and just keep on our merry way. Fundamental shifts will have to occur. UBI maybe, or something like it. Robots that provide for the needs of everyone. I have no idea, just a couple thoughts.
Anyway, I think the transition will be rough, and possibly slow. People don't like change.
In 1000 years, if we maintain control of the AGI, I think we will be living a really nice life. But the next 50 years are going to be painful to navigate, I think.
I'm personally planning to duck my head down, stay up here in the middle of nowhere, and keep learning. Good luck, us.
