> 200m knowledge workers in the world, 30m developers. We're talking about a world where you need 5% of every knowledge workers salary to go into tokens. 20% if you're a developer.

This is where the napkin math is breaking down in a big way. There is absolutely no reason to assume this will only impact "knowledge workers". Farmers use computers. Farmers will use AI.

AI for what? None of the AI a farmer could or would use would be any more meaningful that light chatbot usage or already existing computer vision/gps

And around 400k H-2A workers. Humanoid robots... Who works on them I wonder.

The kind of farm that would use AI is already 99% machinery and automation.
