If AI becomes capable of replacing the bulk of software developers, many trades will be replaced by a guy earning a little over minimum wage wearing AR goggles

  No need for the AR goggles, just hire day labor to work for a skilled tradesman as a labor multiplier, or try the old fashioned "here's a mobile phone do what your boss says" In the trades themselves, we've been doing this for centuries... have a master mason supervise the journeyman masons supervising the manual day labor. AI will not be able to compete with experienced personnel. In that field they've already dumbed down the entry level requirement to "pick up a brick and move it there" and it can't go much lower. On the other hand, if I were manufacturing survey equipment I'd worry about AR goggles as the competition.
