The economic game changer is obvious - a massive cost cut. This is not quite 99% as the AI will be used by a human who has to be paid and the AI usually has some cost.
In short it is AI and humans not AI or humans.
The geopolitical game changer is not so obvious. A simple job like transcribing audio files has typically been done in offshore locations. The future is likely to be AI and humans, but the humans are likely to be highly skilled and expensive and there won’t be many of them. Some of these skilled/expensive people will be in offshore locations, but that is likely to be a rarity. Most of these jobs will be reshored. This will be a problem for countries who offer lots of low-skilled/inexpensive people via offshoring. These countries will be at a geopolitical disadvantage in an AI led future.
