We are still very, very far away from having robotics overtake human dexterity. Even if AI can replace all knowledge workers, barbers, surgeons, and athletes will have a job for a long time.



Aside from surgeon, those are low EV careers.


The only careers in the future will be people who don’t do something an AI can do, so the EV won’t be low compared to no existent jobs. Obviously “capitalist” is the only job that makes real money.


I mean low EV compared to other careers right now. Obviously automation benefits the ownership class massively. Buy tech stocks; they are discounted at the moment.


Athletes?


Low EV. Some make it very big, but most earn nothing and retrain.


And cooks!
