Wow this sounds sort of easy to game. If AI can do a task well, its price will naturally crater compared to paying a human to do it. Hence the task becomes less economically valuable and so the bar for AGI rises recursively. OpenAI itself can lower costs to push the bar up. By this definition I think MS basically gets everything in perpetuity except in extreme fast takeoff scenarios.
