The fields you just listed are extremely cutthroat highly desired high-skill jobs that are currently being threatened by automation. We also don’t have jobs for the people being forced out of those fields, it’s not like there’s room in there to absorb millions of laid off laborers.

Art is still art, whether you paint with oil or on an iPad. Doesn’t quite count.
