Yeah. Like a lot of technological shifts, it's not so much that the AI will put everyone who does mental work out of a job. It's more that that people who can interface well with the AI and operate it, will put out of a job the people who are competing directly with the AI itself.

That's only in the medium term though. In the long term the shifts from AI and climate change and God knows what else are so seismic that all bets are off IMO.
