In fact, Northwestern economist Robert Gordon, in The Rise and Fall of American Growth , makes similar arguments. The dismal outcome if Jones and Gordon are correct is that growth will decline to zero (other than for population growth). Both of these ideas seem plausible.

Harvard Business Review
MARCH 28, 2013
When Gordon Moore, the cofounder of Intel, asserted nearly 50 years ago that the number of transistors on integrated circuits would double roughly every two years, he was charting a path for the company that would dominate the industry — and dictate the direction of technology — for decades.

DECEMBER 8, 2016
In early 2016 economists David Autor, David Dorn, and Gordon Hanson published an influential paper that highlighted some of the costs of global trade. But if they squeeze entire industries’ ability to invest or make it easy to rely on cheap labor rather than technology, the result could be less innovation, rather than more.
