Many people worry the rise of AI and robotics could lead to job
losses, as machines become increasingly capable of performing tasks
faster, cheaper, and more accurately than humans, concerns have grown
about the long-term impact on employment, wages, and job security.

Even skilled professions, such as those in healthcare, finance, law,
and technology, may not be immune. The growing capabilities of AI
suggest that no sector is entirely safe from disruption.

No point in referring back to the time when cars replaced horses.
This time you can say that yes, AI will replace some jobs, but it also
creates new jobs.
But then exponential AI improves and does those jobs as well.

How long have we got before unemployment is the future career?
