I think that agents will be fairly ubiquitous within a few years. So instructing AI will be a critical skill.

There may also be a very large segment of the population that are small business entrepreneurs with only AI and/or robotic "employees".

There will be a very popular category of AI/robotic "co-founder" agent that does the "prompt engineering" for you to set up and reconfigure your business by selecting the team of bots and specifying instructions for them.

We will also start to see more and more anticipatory companion agents that somehow monitor the stream of input that you consume as well as your output and just predict and produce much of what you want before you request it.

I personally don't see a big future in traditional jobs.

Agreed, question is what is the timeline for this? 2year or 5 year or much later ?
It is already starting. But most of those predictions may be widely applicable in 2-10 years.

It seems like all of these things will be feasible to some degree within a couple of years. It's hard to predict how long it will take for them to be robust and widely deployed.
