While there’s an absolute comparative advantage, this analysis ignores a subsidized comparative advantage from VC money. It talks about comparative advantage changing over time, but that’s not quite what I’m getting at.
Most LLMs are currently run at a loss as far as I know. If a company can do that long enough to put an industry out of work, that’s a huge problem.
Combine that with advertising that the AI is better or safer than a human doing the job, and humans might not be allowed back in the industry even if the AI competitive advantage becomes unsubsidized.

I think Open AI is covering the cost of compute for $20/month per user because I can run llama on my laptop without the fans spinning up. of course, only OpenAI knows how much it costs to run, but that's what your argument hinges on.
