I don't know about "destabilizing" per se, but whenever people try to set prices significantly above or below market, there tend to be consequences. If OpenAI paid $5/hr when people are more than willing to accept $1.5/hr, demand for those jobs would far outstrip supply, leading to intense competition for those positions. Situations like this often lead to corrupt practices where the bureaucrats/middlemen who find themselves in a position to determine who get these jobs end up capturing a significant portion of the profits, either directly or indirectly.
