Summary: AI will specifically destroy jobs created by computers in the first place, preserving 'offline' jobs, while minimally impacting work quality, and preserving gross productivity.
1) The jobs that AI destroys will largely be isolated to many of the same jobs the computers created, facilitated or enabled, 2) The more that workers in a given field were reliant upon computers, the lower the percentage of them will be required to accomplish the same output after AI is deployed; this reduction in demand for workers could be up to 90% in some market segments. 3) When this happens, work quality only suffers slightly; 4) When this happens, productivity is not reduced, and some companies may scale-up fewer workers to surpass previous productivity levels.
The take-away is that jobs that were largely or entirely not dependent on computers (or which predate computer) will be less impacted by the rollout of ML and AI. These jobs include carpenters, police, paramedics, doctors, refuse workers, power linesmen.
This will remain true until corporations push culture if not laws to have androids perform those remaining jobs left to humans (e.g. carpenters, police, paramedics, doctors, refuse workers, power linesmen). At that point, society will debate whether productivity is more important that anthropocentrism and protecting a moralized, industrious, human populations.

Dude1: "This is a classic example of Kizzletonian Economics. You can tell by how good the economy is doing."

The "k-shaped" economic recovery was not a recovery for the poor, it was a downward spiral into poverty.

If you don’t know what a monopoly is, it’s when one firm controls an entire market, getting to set their own high inflated prices, benefiting few consumers achieving a near productive or allocated efficiency. Does this sound familiar? Oh wait that’s literally the Collegeboard (commentary credit to @AnxiousJoe on Youtube. You can find it on his AP Test Tier List video.), and on top of that, you will find yourself graphing A LOT!! If you’re not a math or statistics person, graphing is going to be difficult for you. This class is basically a second math class even though it claims “that it’s minimal”, gurl I still have to find the area of a triangle in AN ECON CLASS. You may have to deal with poor grades and bad GPA!! Side effects of this class includes watching too much Jacob Clifford videos, staying up until 3 AM, having a low self-esteem, graphing until your hands hurt (aka arthritis), joints swelling, being on meds like advil and tylenol, and having mental breakdowns.
student 1: how was the ap economics test?
student 2: man i don’t understand microeconomics. what the hell is the supply and demand curve? i still don’t understand what price elasticity means.
second semester:
student 1: dude do you know what a monopoly is?
student 2: what the hell is that? i’m not learning macroeconomics right now.

Get the Theory of Economic Ejaculationmug. Also known as ECON101 - A phrase styled after the usual name of an introductory economics module at university or college. It's usually used by libertarians and conservatives to explain away the problems of capitalism, with the implication that their interlocutor "simply doesn't understand basic economics", even though a lot of said basic economics go on to be debunked in Economics 201.
Lib: "The minimum wage was introduced so that every employed person could afford food and rent, but ever since the Reagan administration, wages haven't been following the massive increases in productivity, as well as skyrocketing rent."
Cons: "Bruh, that's dumb - raising wages means people must get fired! Also, rent is increasing because more people want to rent! Supply and demand - it's just Economics 101."
