What jobs AI can't replace for the foreseeable future
AI anxiety is a new term that many people are learning recently, this substack features stories of people losing job to AI (client / management switched to AI tools instead of employing them)
Jobs that requires sign-off
AI can't be liable for fault. Claude , Gemini or ChatGPT can't be jailed if a building collapse due to wrong material / engineering calculation. If your job requires sign-off (signature that says everything is good) and you can go to jail for negligence or malicious intent , your job is safe (Auditor, Architect, Structural engineer). Upper management / directors will always need someone to sign-off critical tasks, so that someone will take the blame if anything goes wrong.
Jobs that require physical precision
Plumber, electrician, surgeon, construction worker, cook. Yes there's AI robot now, but you wouldn't want to risk frying your home electrical circuit from a robot mistake, and I believe most affluent / wealthy people (like some upper management people who love AI) don't want too.
Jobs that require human as entertainment
Actors, professional sports / chess / players, musician, comedian. Whats the fun watching two computer AI playing chess with each other? People want unpredictable fun, and be amazed by talent / trained skill. Computer / AI would be at the top level of being trained and predictable, it would be boring.
