Depends on your IQ and strenght and weaknesses.

As for "demand", last time I checked 1/3 of teenage girls have suicidal thoughts for example. Mental health in general is a mess.

Parents, especially rich parents pay enormous sums to kepp their kids save and educated, anybody that works in mental health amd education will do fine.

Then there is the aging society, old people require all sort of things, health care among them. Anybody getting into that sector will do fine.

If you want to really leverage your potential, the military is short on staff, and not just infantery men. The military is in a sense a state within the state with all all roles from tech to health care to legal to education.

The last thing that gets automated are military professionals, for they protect the rich from the poor. It is the only union with real power that protects their members.

If you are into philosophy, you can actually get a job as some military instructor at an academy doing just that.

That is what i'm thinking, people are always going to need medical and mental support and at least for the foreseeable future, they're not going to want a GP or psychiatrist who is an AI, not that that is even possible yet.

The whole military thing for me is a no though. I'm UK based, not American and although I recognise the need for military forces they are generally wielded to create more suffering in the name of greed and I'd rather try to dedicate my life to helping people (as long as I'm not destitute myself lol). I do understand there are roles within the military that are not directly shooting people etc. but I just wouldn't want to uphold a system that I perceive to have so many flaws, but I guess by paying taxes (not that I do that yet as I'm a student currently) I'll be upholding that system either way.
