Summary from the TLDR AI newsletter

AI might not eliminate high-paying human jobs due to potential constraints like limited computing power and energy usage. These constraints could lead to the principle of comparative advantage, where humans remain employed in roles despite AI's superior capabilities, because the opportunity cost of allocating AI to all tasks would be too high. As AI advances, human roles could change, but new tasks and increased wealth might sustain or even increase compensation for human jobs.
