alt Hacker NewsI think you're basing AI only on modern 2025 LLMs.
If there is a magnitude increase in compute (TPUs, NPUs, etc) over the next 3-5 years then even marginal increases in LLM usability will take white collar jobs.
If there is an exponential increase in power (fusion) and compute (quantum) combined with improvements in robotics and you're in the territory where humans can entirely be replaced in all industries (blue collar, white collar, doctors, lawyers, etc).

Where does all the power come from? Compute increases have to has sustainable power source and we don’t have that.
OTOH if there is worldwide catastrophic economic collapse due to climate change none of these things will get built.
