If you didn't notice, google.com alone brought utter devastation upon junior paralegals almost as soon as it became a thing.

My observation about all white collar jobs to which epithets "creative" and "strategic" are applicable: they are way way more vulnerable to automation than a "grunt" work.

Look how fast marketing profession turned from creative to number crunching, and the only guys who are left in the field from "the old industry" are from its "grunty" part

I don't think the part about marketing works. Number ads sucks horribly, and they are not effective.

What works is campaigns like "diamonds are forever" or stunts where your product gets on the national news.
