And that was in the 2000s

So yeah, there is huge progress continuing with technology to eat as many jobs as possible. You gave a list, great, and those jobs might never go away, but there may be 2 instead of 5 people employed at those jobs.

I have taken a single person's 4 hour daily job and reduced it to 5 minutes for me, and then automated overnight. Human cannabalization continues

I do believe that AI will create jobs that are well paying and doing functions that we can never imagine. Till will tell.
