“30% of American workers have zero AI exposure at all. Cooks. Mechanics. Bartenders. Dishwashers. The technology reshaping professional careers is completely irrelevant to roughly a third of the workforce.”

Robots with AI will replace these jobs next.

“Robots with AI will replace these jobs next.”

Yes, that is no doubt coming. But successful, versatile, mechanical anthropomorphic robots that can fully replace humans are, I think, two or three decades away. Amazing progress has been made the past ten years, but getting general purpose mechanisms to replace humans is a tough task.

There might be one more generation that can perform manual work that robots cannot do.

After we have generalized smart AI and anthropomorphic robots, all bets are off.
