A lot of jobs are going to become automated. People laugh or underestimate it now but think about it,it save companies mad money. No overtime,No healthcare,No calling out,No bad customer service,No lawsuits etc. And honestly the more people lean on technology for their regular everyday it will just speed up the process.

How many decades have they been talking about this breh? The past 2 at least. This shyt is another 2 or 3 decades away and at very low levels
The technology is there...its a matter of legislation now. Its not DECADES away. Besides, robots already took away plant jobs in manufacturing 25 some odd years ago. This is very much so a reality.
You ever use a self-serving kiosk at a store? That's a job a cashier could do
Uber? A taxi cab call center could do that too.

Have you ever noticed how there's always someone staffed at the self-checkout kiosks at a grocery store? It's because them shyts have problems all the time that require human intervention. This milk didn't scan right. It don't know how to put in the code. It keeps telling you re-scan the last item that you just put in the bag. What happens when you want to take out one item from your bag? Always some minor little issue that pops up that can only be resolved through human intervention. It's a reason why you'll never see more self-checkout than actual cashiers in any grocery store. Them shyts just don't work that well in the grand scheme of things. Again, it'll be another 2 or 3 decades before it works to the satisfaction of actual people at the same level of a human cashier.
Malls are closing because more people prefer to shop online. Not because robots are replacing them. It's a business model that worked well in the 90s but not so much in the 2010s.
Again think about the practicality of these situations:
What happens when you need to find a new pair of jeans for school or dress for a wedding. How is a robot gonna tell you how it looks on you? The robot gonna tell you, na you should get the green one and wear that with the blue pants?
What happens when you at a restaurant and want to make changes to a dish? "yes I don't want cheese, but make it medium rare". "what do you recommend here for someone who wants pork?" Then afterwards going to get your drinks, then checking on other tables to see how their meals are going in the middle of dinner, then going to tell the chef that he needs to put the cream on the side. robots in 2017 are not processing all that in any realistic manner suitable for a live business. not on the level of being able to be just as efficient as a human worker. It will take another 2 or 3 decades. Some little proof of concept videos in a closed off lab on youtube is not the same as producing the same results as real live humans in a real world environment today. What restaurant owner is really going to pay $500k to buy a robot that can only deliver drinks or food to table as long as it's in a straight line at 1mph or else it fall over?
Did breh really just try to use ATMs as an example? Yea because robots are going to be able to look at your file and see if you're approved for a mortgage loan or how to manage your portfolio
At the end of the day robots still struggle with jobs that take ANY type of intuitive decision making, complex physical environments with people constantly moving around or any type of abstract thinking. Yall realize Terminator came out over 30 years ago now and Skynet still don't exist?
Outside of flipping burgers or moving bricks to the same spots day in day out, aint shyt to worry about for the next 2 or 3 decades
The way that second response post made OP look foolish is surprisingly underrated looking at the responses in this thread.
Scary times...nikkas just laughing at an even more limiting job market moving into the future.
Spooky.

Have you ever noticed how there's always someone staffed at the self-checkout kiosks at a grocery store? [Breh, that's 1 salary or wage of a supervising staff member replacing 8 people who would be salaried or per diem at the registers. Pre-Automation - You're paying 8 people $17/hour. Post-Automation - You're paying ONE PERSON $20/hour to oversee the kiosks. You replaced 8 jobs w/ 1 person and 8 computers, breh.]It's because them shyts have problems all the time that require human intervention. This milk didn't scan right.

[Breh, this is completely off. Think about how efficient technology increasingly gets as it becomes more adopted. How efficient has Siri & Cortana become since voice recognition was first introduced. You're underestimating how fast technology advances AND you're completely disregarding the Amazon videos posted by @Scruffy which shows how efficient they are NOW.]

Increased warehouse productivity by 8% compared to it's human counterparts, and doesn't need to be paid.
A.I. Is Doing Legal Work. But It Won’t Replace Lawyers, Yet.
AI is expected to destroy the paralegal field as well.
Laugh at this shyt now, it'll be your boss in 20 years.

The company I work for already uses AI for a lot of the tasks our pre-sales/sales dept used to do too. They're already studying people's work patterns, so the AI already predicts what they're going to do and adopt the user's behaviour. AI is going to hit a lot of people working in supply chain manufacturing first...

Right now there are folks in my agency that are getting RIF notices because their job just got took over by computer software. These people were working 20-30 years reviewing legal documents and they just got straight up automated out the door. These folks thought they were safe with a government job, but nope they're about to get the bushes treatment.
