I think experience is going to become a multiplier of value here, there will be a first adopter advantage and lower cost is going to create demand.

"Tendency of the rate of profit to fall" affects labor, too.
Sure, you may have a temporary advantage by leveraging AI and effectively doing labor arbitrage (the same way some craftsmen could gain a temporary advantage over others if they had access to rare/expensive tooling in the early days of the Industrial Revolution) but this advantage will quickly disappear as AI tooling becomes cheap and ubiquitous.

Adoption is happening way too fast for your approach to work, IMHO. I can see it being viable if you worked at some consultancy that invented ChatGPT and kept it to themselves, but at this point it's too late to contain it.

What's the adoption rate of copilot ? It's been out for how long now ?

Growing very rapidly[1] with a userbase of millions[2] already

At that point you'll need to have at least two or three IC jobs just to survive, because wages will plummet.
