Not sure you get either outcome in either case.

Race dynamics increases p(doom) for everyone.

The non-doom scenarios include "utopia for all", and "power flows to investors, not citizens of whichever nation the winning model's corp. was registered in".

Independently, "oh look all the investors went bankrupt" can happen in both "doom" and "normal technology" timelines.
