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?

Valid.

Sperm donor.

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.

Danielle Fishel And Lance Bass Just Recreated Their Hilariously Awkward 1999 Prom Photo—And We Can't Even

Just because not all love leads to "happily ever after" doesn't mean it can't last, and it definitely doesn't mean some iconic photos can't be taken along the way!

Appearing for a retro Disney-themed American Idol, Danielle Fishel was met by her old friend Lance Bass, whom she dated for a year back in her Boy Meets World days. In between shoots, Fishel would travel with Bass while *NSYNC toured, and she'd even go stay with Bass's family during the holidays.

Trump Just Shared A Truly Unhinged Tribute To Tim Cook After He Announced He's Stepping Down As Apple CEO—And, Hoo Boy

President Donald Trump shared an unhinged tribute to Apple CEO Tim Cook—whom he again referred to as "Tim Apple"—following Cook's announcement that Apple will have a new leader starting in September, openly reminiscing about all the times Cook would call him to "kiss my ass."

Cook took over from Steve Jobs and reshaped Apple by leaning on his operations expertise. He streamlined and expanded global supply chains, introduced Apple-designed chips, and pushed the company beyond hardware into services, launching subscription offerings like Apple News, Apple TV+, and Apple Pay, which have since become major revenue drivers.

New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez spoke frankly with MeidasTouch Network's Pablo Menriquez when asked about President Donald Trump's second-term golfing habits, pointing out why Americans might actually want him on the "golf course more than you want him in the Oval Office."

She said it was “awful” that Trump was golfing while the U.S. is at war with Iran and facing rising prices, arguing he should be focused on his responsibilities instead.
