Because of how capitalism works and people always try to corner markets, extract value from other people, etc. etc.?

Because we can choose different professions that are less susceptible to automation? Or we can study DL to implement our own AI.

What are those? It seems it's low-margin, physical work that's seeing the least AI progress. Like berry picking. Maybe also work that will be kept AI-free longer by regulators like being a judge?

Perhaps surgery. Or cooking.

I was gonna link to this robot (https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/worlds-first-roboti...) as a reason cooking is "in danger". Seems like it cannot do the harder motor skills like chopping ingredients. In another video it makes a steak and the cooking time seems to be determined by how incredibly slow the robot is. It also makes a huge mess because it has worse motor skills than a toddler. Cooks seem safe for now. Too bad it's already a terrible area to work in because too many people love it.

idk about cooking, but surgery is already seeing AI-aid.
