AI will eventually do away with many higher-functioning professional jobs, including teaching, social work, architecture, customer service, and sales. What will be left for humans are the manual labor jobs. Trade jobs like plumbing and electrical, car repair, craftsmanship, and manufacturing jobs. All the jobs that most Americans avoid for a chance to go to a four-year university, so AI can eventually replace them.

Well, AI can never deliver packages, so we can all work for Amazon!
