It doesn't matter. In 5-10 years all those jobs will be entirely automated by autonomous robotics.

These are jobs that either aren't even yet on the spectrum of automation (carpentry, plumbers, industrial HVAC & electricians) or as I referenced in more detail, folks who work on the robotics that "replace the jobs"

Unless the robots are either going to become good at swinging hammers or designing, maintaining, and install themselves, I think these are some of the safest jobs you can have, if there is such a thing

Plumbers and electricians will be absolutely last jobs that are automated. We'll automate CEOs long before them.

Source? Seems like an Elon Musk- or Fusion research proposal-type timeframe

Don't need a source... in 12 years climate change is going to kill us all anyways. Spoken by another Oracle of Delphi.

I highly doubt this and even if it becomes legitimately true, people have been claiming we’re all being replaced out of jobs for the last 2000 years. It’s not happening.
