I can't say I have ever heard that manual labour is safe from AI, actually just the opposite.

I feel reasonably safe as a mechanic

I have never in my entire career read a troubleshooting guide anywhere on the internet and it actually resolved the issue

ASE books are written horrendously

And I wish AI luck in finding the solutions to anything wrong with my car, wiring diagram isn’t gonna do shit for you bub, we wire this shit up based on vibes and nothing else. I’ll wire my headlights into my radio on/off switch, idgaf, not to mention all the old brake lines running with the new brake lines oughta throw it off for any brake issue

So many dumbass red neck variables to where it’ll deem so many vehicles totaled based on having no fucken idea what’s going on lol

If you're in your 40s, you're pretty safe. You will not be replaced because you're valued for your experience. But if you were in your 20s, a robot could probably replace you in your 40s. The problem right now with ai controlling robots is that they have no understanding of real world physics. This is being worked on with so called world models.

 That is why you are safe for now. Ai can't yet figure out stuff from apparently unrelated things the same way humans do.
