The next jobs, and there wont be a lot, are the old trades that our grandfather used to do. Plumber, electrician, carpenter. Next tier are the police, fire and ambulance. Nurses. It goes downhill from there. Wal Mart and Taco Bell will be staffed by retards and degenerates. You need a trade.

What's going to happen to all the other jobs?

>>18472514
Why can't those be replaced by robots?

Automation. All of them. There was a story this week that they are replacing the McDonald's cashiers with kiosks. You go to Wal-Mart and most now go through self checkout. Other retail stores are closing altogether. Amazon is going automated. Factories. The fucking bill collectors are robots. Learn auto body or how to frame a house.

What im saying isnt absolute and picking it apart wont save anyone from whats coming.

Irregular physical labor = very hard to automate. White collar work is mostly predictable and can be broken down into successive tasks that can be automated.

Fug. Wouldn't it be better to study math and have any job I want w/ 300K starting?

Problem is that everyone will gave that idea. And with quantum computing those high tech jobs will go away too.

Basic Minimum Income is what is in store for most

But not everyone is good at math, or wants to study it. I see the trends though, Instagram only had 30 employees but sold for 1 Billion, and machine learning/AI/automation will just exaggerate the trend. What about data scientists though? Surely not every 'thinking' job will be obsolete? Someone has to interpret the data, tell the machines what to look for, communicate to shareholders, no?

My plan was to do an undergrad in applied math, get my Toastmasters certification (public speaking), learn Python, Java and C, and then either go for a masters degree in automation/machine learning/AI or try to get a job and work my way up so that (ultimately) i can utilize big data in the healthcare industry and hopefully save some lives.

Software engineering. Hard math. Physics. Mechanics. Chemistry. Biology. Basically STEM. It cant be automatized by anything. Why?

Look at task like driving cars. It is easy for super stupid people. Still the automatization is slow as fuck, the problems isnt solved yet and nobody can tell you the year when automatized cars will be cheaper than paying drivers.

Higher thinking jobs? No fucking way. Not on the next 50 years. Only retards with 0 knowledge about subject tells you that that stem fields will be automatized. No they fucking wont.

The harder your study will be, the more impossible it will be to replace you with AI.

But chances are when you have to ask such bullshit question like this here, you are probably another average normie who struggled to finish highschool and simply lack the willpower to force himself to actually finish real hard courses.

Good luck!

Ship inspector, engineer, RN, butcher etc

It's the trades that will never let you down.

Why would I try to prove myself to an anonymous user on a Tibetan yak hair spinning collective? Besides, there are lots of people talking about this. They might be talking out their ass, but that's why we have tot talk to each other. I was previously thinking of doing medicine, but I feel a lot more urgency wrt automation/AI etc., because it seems like it will be the only field left besides the trades.

>lots of people talking about this
Sure, because majority of people cant be wrong

There are certain topics where majority of people will always be wrong.

Doctors will be automated. It sort is now. Google can effectivelly replace general practice doctors if you could buy medicine online. Just google symptoms and boom, cured.

Even chirugs can be repaced. Human bodies are plus minus the same and less complicated operations can be automated (but it will still take 50 year mininum). Also doctors with diplomas will scream loadly to make people fear cold machines so they stay relevant.

But really, if you have the willpower and brain capacity, get yourself into anything creative / research&development and you will end up replacing normies with robots yourself.

Dont skip centuries ahead. The people who claims automatization will teplace everybody are fat dumb CEOs with 0 hard skills, juat enough lack of empathy to climb the corporate ladder through corpses.

Chill and pick something you will enjoy doing for the next 50 years. Google

and do like 10 of them.

Speaking as someone who works pretty deep in the robotics and machine learning field, it's grossly overstated how much automation is going to take over.
By the time it becomes a real issue most of us will be dead or retired.

Plz elaborate, anon

Try asking >>>/sci/ for better advice.

Your best bet is probably a degree in Computer Science/Math focusing on machine learning and intelligent agents etc. Maybe add a dash of metaphysical philosophy.

If I'm going to be honest, lots of people overestimate the automation scare.
As a guy who's working as a distributor of "automation machines", the most it can do at this moment is to reduce the menial labor costs with doing the repetitive task in precise, safer, and constant manners.
If you're thinking about rise of robots things where AI will make us obsolete that'd take us years after maybe our generation died to be perfected.

Of course, if talking about study STEM, being a doctor is always a good choice if you're up to it, and if not try to learn about copywriting and marketing. Don't worry too much about robots/AI at this moment. They still need human behind them.
