Commercial Airline Pilot. Not because AI couldn't do it, but people wouldn't accept it
A century ago, elevators in public buildings also fell into this category (always manned by an operator).

Some trains now don’t have live operators.

It’s a matter of time before society will accept pilotless airplanes.

Driverless cars en masse are coming soon.

There’s too big of a payoff to not use that technology.

I work in auditing. I don’t think AI can replace the accounting industry anytime soon. Maybe in 15-20 years but it requires too much judgement

High level critical thinking medical provider where seconds count often associated with high litigation potential.


I think AI will in time (testing now) be able to diagnosis routine illness/disease processes. But in the emergent setting where seconds matter you will have to have human involvement Surgeon/OB/NP/PA/RN

Trains and cars aren't 30,000 feet in the air and elevator operators just pushed a button.

I'm never going to trust AI to land a goddamn plane

Depends on infrastructure

If robots are created en masse, none

Horseless carriages?

They’ll never replace horses and mules.

Teacher.

You'll need physical bodies still in the classrooms and no one wants the kids home 24/7.

As someone mentioned, trades are definitely going to be affected and aren't AI "proof." If trade jobs are the majority of jobs left, and even many of those will get automated, you will have a flood of labor in the market which will drive down cost of labor and make it a lot more difficult to get paid well for your work. Also I suspect there is a good chance homes will not be as big as they are now since there will be far less economic output by middle and lower class people (maybe middle class doesn't exist anymore), meaning jobs will require less labor to complete, even further increasing the over abundance of labor available.

Fact. As AI puts people out of work, they will have more time to do hoodrat stuff with their friends.

Millwright/ maintenance. It’s an easier job typically and has zero chance of being replaced by robots because you’re fixing something different every day

Ahh this thread again where the OT will jerk off how awesome the trades are.

The ironic part being is almost no one on the OT actually works these trade jobs or wants their kids to work said jobs.

Carry on with the circle jerk.

Robots do surgery better than humans.

I’ll be correct eventually, have fun playing the Luddite.

You realize that isn't AI right? Nor are any of the things you mentioned really. That's just machinery, run by people.

AI pilots = no one in the cockpit

This isn't even considering the likelihood that a state run government would be chomping at the bit to infiltrate those systems and send planes falling out of the sky. Stuxnet and the like
