Insurance appraisers who investigate auto accident damage can also breathe easy. Dishwashers, barbers, electricians, lawyers, and astronomers are currently out of danger.
Fundamentally all jobs are on the list. Even in retail. Walmart can direct workers to just simply work in the backroom and put stock on the floor. Any work that involves customer service can now be eliminated. So, as a Walmart worker, if I spend 1 1/2 hours helping customers and the rest stocking, I can now spend 8 hours/day stocking. That ultimately means less Walmart workers.
I can’t think of one job where people don’t communicate. Any time in a job that is spent in communication can now be eliminated and workers can be focused on other tasks. That means less workers, no matter how it is defined.
Artificial Intelligence is better than what we have now, NI “No Intelligence”. If we can upgrade lawyers, politicians, “scientists”, professors, and movie writers, then I welcome our new robot overlords. As long as they can make me a sammich.
Not gonna lose my yob man. I’m retired.
When AI starts laying bricks I will get concerned.
All position that require elections to determine who gets the gig should be switched over to AI immediately. America would be a great place if the White House and The Nation’s Capitol Buildings were museums run by robots.
I notice that a job category that shows up a couple of times is “Proofreaders and Copy Markers”. I didn’t realize that anyone was still employed at that anywhere.
One place I could see it improving is the DMV. AI can’t be slower than it is now, unless they come up with a government worker AI that has an attitude.
Also, since December of last year, AI has become sufficiently good to imitate specific voices and images of people - at nearly freeware availability.
AI is a hoax.

Oh Imsure wish AI could take over my tax prep. I HATE doing my taxes. Just another reason to hate everything about the government’s interference in every aspect of life.
Keep in the trades kids. An AI chat bot can’t plumb a house or install an Air conditioner.
I've worked on equipment that could replace these two.
Just a matter of time.
Blue collar skilled labor jobs are good to go for a long time.
There are portions of my job that AI could impact. But I’m not worried about the extremely valuable human portion of my job, that will probably never go away until there is a 100% android takeover of the utility industry.
Whew Hoo!
Hampster underwear tag maker aint on the list!
I’m safe!
