I don't, because such a model presumes every human has similar entrepreneurial capabilities and spirit. Neurodivergent humans may lack the social skills necessary for success in entrepreneurship, some humans may place a higher valuation on relationships than they could effectively trade upon via entrepreneurship, and others still may be of a persecuted group for whom entrepreneurship brings more risk than would be offset through income gains.

Even if we did restructure society around everyone being their own business owner (and man, are the powers that be trying to do so for a whole slew of awful, worker-screwing reasons), the level of competition OP tries to describe (of sole proprietors competing 1:1 against corporate behemoths, as if corporations somehow wouldn't also benefit from such AI-amplification of output) is highly unlikely. The driver of massive AI investment at present is to lessen the impact of workers in an attempt to drive down wages and consolidate power within the hands of the few, prime corporate players; such a future filled with self-starting entrepreneurs would still be limited to those who can afford the tokens or subscription plans to the largest AI models (or have the hardware and expertise at home to roll their own), and so you'd just have a global gig economy for workers with three or four companies hoovering up most of the excess for themselves through AI costs.

Look, I'd love nothing more than to run my own little IT Services firm with a sociable partner to handle the social networking aspect, while I get to tinker, build, and make people smile all day long at how cool technology can be. AI, however, ain't it. If anything, it threatens the survival of corporate knowledge workers and entrepreneurs both, by grossly devaluing their labor at a time of massive wealth inequality and severe employment precarity.

We can do better than that.

I try to address this in the article. I think the same could have been expected of plumbing, electricians, landscaping, etc but through a different means, standardization, the corporations simply don't have a good position.

In this world the neurodivergent is empowered, they no longer are charged with persuasion of their ideas to a team or corporation. They can build their ideas themselves and form a limited partnership with someone with the talents they lack.

Though I make it a point to describe the new economic order without regard to its desirability. However, other authors on the subject (e.g. Lysander Spooner, Rothbard, etc) would be pleased by the development in terms of its social welfare.
