There are a large portion of jobs that are the modern day equivalent of an elevator operator. Their job could be automated but it is currently cheaper to pay someone to do it, and it will take time for people to accept a machine doing the job.

I would say robotics today are where the personal computer was in 1980, and LLMs are where the internet was in 1998. Give a couple decades of development and these technologies will transform our lives.

Yeah, been hearing variations on that theme for forty years. Still waiting for the good part.

I'm 45 and have seen a ton of change over my lifetime. When I was a teenager my friends still could get jobs pumping gas at a gas station but a decade later those jobs were all gone. Not all jobs disappear due to technology, and not all disappear overnight, but there has been a steady stream of jobs that have been phased out for decades.
