Sorry for the tangent, but it's one plausible explanation for how to prevent AGI from shutting down capitalism--put in an overseer to fetter it.

Nah, it's cool; I go off on tangents myself and tbh, your comment is relevant and something to consider.

Have you read Freefall? It examines a similar situation except it uses the concept of an organic AI (in the form of a genetically engineered anthro canine called Florence) as a bridge between natural, human intelligence and machine AI. It gets deep into the philosophy behind ideas like sentience, consciousness, etc.

I'd recommend starting from the beginning so that you don't miss anything, though admittedly last time I tried to go from start-to-finish I wound up getting too bogged down in the philosophy and didn't make it all the way through. I might try starting again, this time from the last major arc I remember reading though.
