Having helped companies in traditional line of business to "streamline" their work processes, I am quite clear that many of the stuff that the West outsources into Asian countries will eventually be outsourced to AI.

It is already so that in many industries there are hardly any traditional coder jobs on site, and having to explain every step to avoid it going off rails in offshoring assignments is hardly going to be any different to explain it to an AI, when it gets good enough.

Maybe by GPT-20 only, but it will come, and then the roles of architects and business analists are the only ones left.

Agreed. Although... we actually don't know which jobs will be the ones left. For all we know, it will have taken over business analysis, too. Plus, from my experience working on architecture, I suspect that automatizing that part of my job won't be too hard.

For all we know, the only jobs left will be nurse and deep sea miner.

There's no reason this couldn't happen, but surely it would require something better than LLM.
