Yup...
back in the 90's i was warned not to take my chosen career path in IT, due to my job being fully automated within the next 5 years.....i'm still waiting....
Yes some parts were automated.....the mundane, boring bits.
This got rid of all the lunk heads, and elevated positions like mine to people who could think.
I see AI as an extension of this - getting the machines to do the stuff we are either not good at, or hate
....so that we can get on with more interesting things...
For mine - i got into Astronomy to see pretty things and photograph them - not spend all night setting up kit.....
Sorry if this sounds a bit blunt - i realise my experience is not the same as others...so mileage may vary!
