It's the march of progress, but it's coming for previously "safe" jobs. I make a good living as a consultant, but about 80-90% of my job could be automated by AI. I just went to a conference in my field and everyone in the room was convinced that they couldn't be replaced by AI - and they're dead wrong. By the time my small corner of industry gets fully automated I'll be retired or, at the least, in a position where I'm the human gathering the field data and backchecking the automated workflows before it goes out the door.

I applaud your optimism, and genuinely hope you're right.
