What about something like speech therapy?

Or how about teaching?

Succinctly stated. 99% of office desk jobs will become extinct overall.

Putting aside the fact this will absolutely be used to provide subpar care to poor and middle class people, while the rich continue to get human surgeons ... what you describe is not replacing surgeons. It is using robots to do some surgical tasks. If we're talking about career paths, your scenario does not make "surgeon" a bad path.

You have that backwards. The robotic surgeries are more sought after and more expensive right now.

That's just surgery for buildings, so i don't see why AI can't replace that

That would require very advanced robotics. Still a ways off getting that. AI is advancing much faster than robotics.

Now if AI is put in charge of designing and building robotics, then it will advance quickly, but that's just "Terminator" scenario dumb to ever combine those two fields.

Psychologist

AI computer could review millions of cases of data in a microsecond and monitor vital signs during a session, similar to an advanced lie detector, to give better therapy than any human, even a team of thousands of psychiatrists/psychologists, could give.

Surgeons will absolutely be replaced by AI.

Robotic assisted surgery has been a thing for years now. Definitely cutting edge.

+1. Studio Ghibli would like a word. Once AI learns your “style,” no need for you.

AI-driven robots will soon take over all surgeries and perform better than humans.

Robotics engineer will be in big demand. We will need robots for easing the pressure of jobs that humans are not doing currently -

Pollution control
Litter control
Environmental protection
Cleaning our air, water and soil
Removing microplastics
Rehabilitating degraded landscapes
Creating eco-systems
Elder care
Child care
Invalid care
Plant-pet-livestock care
Removal of invasive flora and fauna
Reclaiming elements from waste
Public health - mass vaccines, mass decontamination, mass screening

Ministry

Lawyers. But the profession will contract and be AI assisted. Document drafting and evidence review will be heavily AI assisted. Functions like talking to clients, negotiating and appearing Court really can’t be. And AI cannot give due process.
