I tend to agree with most of your points. LLMs/GPTs are quite awesome at what they can do but they still need a guided hand. This will likely be ironed out some iteration down the road.

Blue collar work, I would argue, will be more impacted proportionally greater. Once robots (humanoid and otherwise) replace factory, manufacturing, and farming work at scale (something we are just embarking on), where do the workers go? Some will likely be needed as subject matter experts in their fields to tend to the machine workers (maybe), but the rest will need to enter the service economy, retrain, or hope there is a welfare scheme in place to support them.
