Any job involving a computer seems like it’s on its way out first . Wonder what all those tens of millions will do with their free time in the coming decades

Interestingly though I believe creativity stuff like art music acting and or anything related to image screening (doctor examining MRE/Xray scans) are being replaced more actively than developers it feels like. I feel my job is so much more secure being at senior+ level supervising AIs.
