    It’s an interesting idea. If their thesis is true, it might cause compression of the income range.

      Working in the field I think there is two things AI will make an impact on:

      • Going after low skill white collar work (basically further automation of semi-skilled labor)
      • Being an excuse to undercut high-skill white collar labor wages.

      However, I suspect we’ll get a lot of the issues we saw with “outsourcing” where the end result is businesses pursuing cheaper outputs without concern for quality.
