Yeah, agreed—the allocation of compute per human would likely become even more skewed if AI agents (or any other tooling improvements) allow your very top people to get more value out of compute than the marginal researcher currently gets.
And notably this shifting of resources from marginal to top researchers wouldn’t require achieving “true AGI” if most of the time your top researchers spend isn’t spent on “true AGI”-complete tasks.
