If ambiguous, resolves to manifold moderators' opinion in 2035. May resolve to a percentage if ambiguous. I'm open to ideas for more specific requirements.

Some clarification:

  • robots count digital robots and physical robots

  • The intent is that if the average person in 2035 considers a job to have been taken over by robots, that job resolves NO. So "taken over" may be vague, but non-absolute, but if almost every job that exists today is gone in that sector then, people would probably agree robots have taken it over.

By "robot designers", do you mean the engineers that develop the robot or the designers that are responsible for the cosmetics?

I meant engineer I think.

bought Ṁ50 Dentists YES

"Fully automatic robot dentist performs world's first human procedure. AI-controlled autonomous robot has performed an entire procedure on a human patient for the first time, about eight times faster than a human dentist could do it."

Does "translator" include interpreter, e.g., consecutive interpreter?

That's a very interesting question! But we still need good resolution criteria. When is a job considered "taken over"? When no one is doing this job anymore? When the number decreases by a percentage compared to today? What data do you want to use for this? For which country do the statements apply? By "robot" do you mean automated physical labour or is an AI that performs purely cognitive work also a "robot"?

Fluffer 💀

tbh I think fluffers could be replaced. What seems to be the bottleneck? very good hyperstimulating videos? solving robotics?

Jobs rarely get automated at all. The definition of the job just changes. Compare an accountant from 50 years ago to one today.

@Jakob Exactly. Or compare a telephone operator in 1930 to 1980.
