Anthropic just studied which jobs AI can be theoretically replaced.

I’m loving the look of “legal” there. The less lawyers, the better.

Member when posters ridiculed me for saying lawyers would be in danger of replacement?

Lawyers are completely safe. They will just make sure laws are passed that limit where AI can be used in their domain.

As a lawyer, I see huge potential for AI in the legal field, but right now, even the most sophisticated AI tools designed for attorneys are lacking.
I see inexplicable misses by AI in transaction documents that I have analyzed. My wife, who is a litigator, still can’t trust it not to hallucinate the law.
At the moment, I use it to draft mundane things like board minutes, consents, certificates, etc., but it’s not ready for specialized legal work.
That’s not to say it won’t be ready in 5 years, but even then, courts and clients are probably more likely to accept errors committed by people rather than errors committed by AI, which means humans will still be the primary drafters in sophisticated legal documents.

That installation and repair part is looking nice

Under Architecture and Engineering it must be forecasting a high replacement rate because "computer engineering" falls under "engineering". And in terms of 'architecture" I don't believe Anthropic factored in the wife effect.

We were making fun of it last summer as we tried to incorporate it into our software products. No more. I doubt you have 5 years. It's getting better very quickly.

Why would that make a difference?
Engineering is something that good AI would be perfect for
I mean unless they want to kill humanity

If AI can do what I do, it should. I doubt very seriously it can.
You reach a point in the legal profession at which you are paid for your judgment, not for your ability to do research and write briefs.

Unfortunately the vast majority of our elected leaders are lawyers. They’ll make sure that lawyers are the last ones to lose their jobs.

I've sat through a few product demonstrations for AI construction takeoff software. And all of them were mostly useless. They in no way would have made my job easier, and I suspect I'd have to spend more time double checking the AI's work than having just done all the work myself.
I'm sure there are industries where AI works well, but its not all encompassing yet.

As someone that runs and intallation and service business, I guess I'll be interviewing former college-educated professionals for install workers in a couple of years. I hope they know how to run a screw runner use a tape measure.

Civil and mechanical engineers have most design work that requires field work. Computer engineers mostly code (if you are not on the hardware side).

If the AI does your work, it's not being pitched for you to use and check.
It's being pitched for your boss to replace you with.
