I think this is a misread of the economics. Human level AI will be expensive at first, but eventually nearly free. OpenAI will have no say in whether this happens. Competition between AI firms means OpenAI has no pricing power. And cost decreases from hardware and software (for a fixed level of intelligence) will allow competition to deliver those lower costs. This won't mean humans can't earn wages by selling their labor. But it will mean that human intellectual labor will be not valuable in the labor market. Humans will only earn an income by differentiated activity. Initially that will be manual labor. Once robotics catches up, probably only labor tied to people's personality and humanness.
