People Imagine Which Jobs Robots Will Never Be Able To Usurp From Humans

Automation is inevitable, but are there any human jobs robots could never be programmed to do? It's genuinely tough to think of anything a human does that couldn't be done faster, cheaper, and more efficiently with a machine. One thing missing from this list is inginuity. Is instinct programmable?

lberry9919 asked, What job could future robots NOT take from human workers?

It could be invevitable that AI will learn to create better AI.

Robotics engineers — if they do their jobs right.

Uhh BattleBots is awesome, excuse me.

Athletes, I don't think I'd want to watch the NBA if it were robots running around shooting and dunking.

Back in my day something something.

Speaking sh*t about younger generations.

Kids need real human interaction - we all do.

Elementary school teacher. Kids need to be socialized by humans. It's not enough to teach them schoolwork, they also have to learn social skills and bond with adults. Also they don't behave predictably; talk about a chaotic system.

Perhaps - nothing?

I feel like this question is unanswerable. I mean theoretically, anything can be automated if you engineer it. If we're talking about a hypothetical future of the imagination, what type of thing could honestly not be done by a robot. If we're counting AI, then even the robots that invent robots would take the jobs of humans.

Also, what if we are all just robots and we don't know it!

Good one, and interesting to consider.

Being a mental health worker.

Could a computer believe in God?

Bishops and Archbishops that bestow Holy Orders, ordaining clergy to the priesthood.

Amen to this.

There will always be a market for human singers. It may be a niche market, the rest of the bands may be robots, but there will always be people who want to hear someone sing from the heart.

You either have the magic or you don't.

Sales. High level sales is ALL about the personal relationship you have with your advisor/seller, and a robot simply can't do that.

DHS Tried To Discredit Reporter Who Exposed Their Shoddy ICE Hiring Practices—And She Brought The Receipts

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) was harshly criticized after it tried to discredit reporter Laura Jedeed, who detailed in an article for Slate how she applied and was accepted to become an ICE agent despite not filling out any of the required paperwork or going through a background check.

In her article, "You’ve Heard About Who ICE Is Recruiting. The Truth Is Far Worse. I’m the Proof.," Jedeed says her original intent at an ICE Career Expo in Texas last August was simply to see “what it was like to apply to be an ICE agent,” not to join the agency.

Officials Ripped After Making Incredibly Dubious Claim About ICE Agent's Injuries From Renee Good Shooting

Two U.S. officials told CBS News that Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who fatally shot Renee Good in Minneapolis, suffered "internal bleeding" after the incident—and the American people are crying foul.

Ross was identified after reporters looked through court records that closely align with the circumstances of a June 2025 incident in Bloomington, Minnesota, referenced by Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Vice President JD Vance.

GoFundMe Donations Soar For Ford Worker Who Was Suspended After Calling Trump A 'Pedo Protector'

TJ Sabula, a United Auto Workers Local 600 line worker at a Ford plant in Dearborn, Michigan, was suspended after he heckled President Donald Trump, calling him a "pedophile protector" during Trump's appearance there on Tuesday—but two GoFundMe campaigns started after he was taken off the job have now raised more than 800 thousand dollars.

Video of the incident shows Trump mouthing "F**k you" before walking off, as he flipped Sabula off after Sabula heckled Trump over his obstruction of the release of the files related to the late financier, sex trafficker, and pedophile Jeffrey Epstein.

Viral Clip Of ICE Agent Absolutely Eating It On A Patch Of Ice In Minnesota Has The Internet Cracking Up

Anyone who lives in an area where snow might be on the ground by Halloween knows a thing or two about ice. Ideally, those things will keep them from falling down every time they leave their house between November and March.

Apparently, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents weren't briefed on ice before MAGA Republican President Donald Trump dispatched an estimated 2,000 of them to Minnesota in the winter.
