If you're afraid of AI, I have bad news: it's just as capable of taking those jobs as it is of taking software engineering jobs, or any other white-collar job.
I'm not "afraid" of AI per se... the Borg have been my dream since childhood, lol. I look forward to it, just worried about the huge displacements it will have under our current hypercapitalistic system with a weak government and poor safety nets. It's gonna hurt, regardless of what I personally do for work :(
