Machines don't need to reach general, each one can stay very narrow and outperform. Humans won't be able to produce much of value - even now :D

It's true that narrow AI can cause quite a dent in human competitiveness. But the majority of the adult population is still gainfully employed even in the most developed countries. Human-level general AI which will quickly evolve to superhuman-level general AI will end that.
Yes, general level will break it all because it will be able to develop itself across all kinds of areas. What will be interesting is just how good something can be developed. The other thing is that we as humans are limited by humanness - but an AI could develop "visibility" that no human would ever think of. Will be interesting to watch - even if it is our species' rapid slide into irrelevance.
