I dunno but I'd definitely cry and eat a tub of ice cream first!

Trade, right? What if everyone moves to trade and then those trade jobs become saturated?

Manufacturing has been heavily impacted, as many jobs have robotics combined with AI doing the bulk of the physical work. Trades will accept some of the overflow, but then that'll get bottlenecked as well. It's not so simple as "do this and be okay."

my f****** AI cant even tell me what the next step in a quest is on a game am playing, it fucks it up daily. So i would say we are a few years from replacing anybody ( unless you are a brainless boss )

I’ll start asking AI for advice on how to survive without AI.

Honestly? I have no plan B. I'm just hoping AI decides it likes me enough to keep me around.

It can not, as a dentist, I am pretty safe. There is no way humans would let a something artificial to make changes in their body, especially when there is pain in it. Jobs that have subjective feelings from the patient/client are not in danger imo

Yeah, I’m a therapist and generally I feel okay about my job prospects. The biggest fear is people being unable to afford being able to pay for my services because of a down economy. AI can replace things like providing coping skills or technical knowledge, but it can’t replace the human element, connection, or subjective and “here and now” part of the job. People losing their insurance after they get laid off might be an issue for dentists.

I’m a career counselor. Let me ask AI real quick.

AI can’t replace me, but they are trying to use it to make a very small part of my job more annoying/cause me problems.

My job can’t be replaced by AI but the anti-AI “uprising” is coming, especially as energy resources get crazy expensive

I’d love AI to take over a support worker job/care job! Never going to happen. When it does I’ll be dead anyway.

Retire young. Once ai replaces me it's a matter of time before jobs are just gone.

Well I don’t work so if someone has taken the time to develop an A.I that sits on its arse watching TV then plan B would be to discover why
