i think most things can be automated, but not everything

i think AI will just replace jobs with new jobs, and humans will continue with open-ended goal setting, and probably jobs where being human is necessary: responsibility and authenticity, so judges, politics, leaders, chefs, etc.

so in a way, the above commenter was correct, anything a programmer can automate, AI can do
