> You’re confusing “It will go away” as the underlying tech vs “it will go away” as in “this will totally lead to trillions in profit and these IPO’s aren’t a sham.”

It was very unclear that this was your argument. Sure. Maybe. I don't much care either way.

> Those uses probably won’t end up replacing white collar work

Ironically the only way I see you being correct here is if it generates so much economic growth that it indirectly creates more jobs than it destroys (which I don't think is a wildly unlikely scenario).l

Edit: Perhaps you mean all white collar work though, in which case sure, I don't buy that either.
