I'm actually an AI researcher and I'm curious why you think this is a meme. You realize jobs like journalism, programming, and hell even academic research are all being automated as we speak, right? If you think it's just the assembly line workers and uber drivers that are getting replaced you're sadly mistaken.

If you think you can just become something artistic like a creative writer or composer those fields are becoming automated too.

I'm not one of the kooks who believes in a singularity since there's no actual evidence for it besides wild speculation, and current machine learning models have a lot of problems, but a huge chunk of careers are going to be completely replaced by robots and AI in the next 50-100 years. I'm honestly not sure how much will be left for humans to do. I'm sure the John Henry's of the world will try to drive stakes for as long as they can but they're all going to die out.
