Honestly I feel like this is something you can’t plan for. Something is going to have to fix the mechanical aspect of this, so I’d say learning that would be a safe bet. They say they’re trying this to free up humans from unfulfilling tasks and mundane or dangerous jobs, but I don’t see it stopping at that. I see artists struggling, I see engineers struggling I see video game developers struggling. I’d say within 20 years top paying jobs in tech being minimum wage. Once AI can be spoken to without being overly specific that’s when we need to worry.

I put my money on plumbers to flourish before artists, engineers, software developers.

I'm on the same boat. I dont see how the system will work. Only way is a complete rethinking of humanity. Maybe some sort of UBI with the condition that you accomplish tasks in your hobbies and get some social contact that way. You cant just tell people to sit at home, people will absolutely go depressed.
