What could stop AI from doing all jobs?
If humanity survives long enough, it will eventually. It's the end goal of technology.

At some point, it will be expected that people creating content (writing/video/etc.) use a human validation service to prove that they aren’t AI. Anyone that doesn’t use this (and presumably uses AI) will be deranked from YouTube and social media.
And their human content fed into the machine, so it can be mass produced whenever and wherever desired, allowing less of the total benefit to flow to the creator, giving them just enough incentive to keep feeding the machine.

#16My personal thoughts on this are
- A good lawyer + AI will likely win in court against a non lawyer with AI who would likely win in court against just an AI
- A good software engineer + AI will ship features faster / safer vs a non engineer with AI, who will beat just AI
- A good doctor + AI will save more lives than a non doctor + AI, who will perform better than just AI
As long as a human has a marginal boost to AI (either by needing to supervise it, regulation, or just AI is simply better with a human agency and intuition) - jobs won't be lost, but the paradox of "productivity increases, yet we end up working harder" will continue.
p.s. there is the classic example I'm sure we all are aware of, autopilot is capable of taking off and landing since the 80s, I personally prefer to keep the pilots there, just in case.

We don't even have a robot than can effectively scrub toilets, if they aren't designed for self-cleaning.
Some will smile at the triviality of such things, but if you solve that you will get very rich. It surely is not at all trivial to solve.
Currently I don't think we can even replace any normal clerk for any slightly more complex problem yet. Programming is essentially a form of translation and these fields will probably change in they get more supplemental tools.
I first thought artists will suffer from AI and perhaps some will be taken advantage off. On the other hand people seem to dislike AI generated content.

#18It's the uncertainty with the transition. Will I, in my mid-career, be able to get one of these new jobs that spawn out as a result of AI, or will I be displaced into something lower-paying as result. TFA kind of just glosses over the people who get displaced in each transition like a footnote.

#19Not just marketing, but often trying to cover financial issues by veering into AI hype

Realizing that without feeding AI new shit to learn from, the whole industry is going to stagnate.
Realizing that there are no longer entry level jobs for tech positions and stifling a large swathe of tech professions.
Realizing that AI isn't that good, and the bulk of the workload has become technical debt and nobody wants to be an AI janitor
etc? It's easy really just gotta get your head out of the hole AI put it in
