    If Ai took over, I would be a chef. I am already in culinary, and I dont think Ai would be going for that anytime soon. If it weren’t an option, then I would be a marine biologist. I love sea life, and I would love to work with animals. The way their brains work and the habits of sharks, turtle, fish, etc is very intriguing to me.

    If AI takes over all of the mental jobs in this world then I would probably become either a hair dresser or cosmetologist. Im really interested in those kinds of things and find those as a passion in my life right now. Even if AI doesn’t take over the world then I think I would still do the same thing because it is something that I really want to do.

    While I do recognize that AI is advancing, I genuinely don’t believe it’ll be able to completely replace human workers, considering everything that AI knows is taken from something that already exists, so they won’t be able to make completely original material like some people think, like movie scripts and books. I think AI should just be used to advance stuff, not replace. But, this wasn’t the question. The job that I think I’d like to do is animation, even if that probably would be one of the first jobs to be replaced. Even if it does happen, AI wouldn’t be perfect, and we would still need actual humans to go over everything to make sure there aren’t any big mistakes. Plus, I’ve always wanted to be an animator, so there is that.

    I would be a Musician for all that I care. It’s the only thing I wanna do in life. I want to give a message to all of the discouraged, low esteem, heartbroken, depressed and hurt people that they are brave, strong and confident, no matter what their life is right now. My music is about Courage, Confidence, Bravery, Self Esteem, Self Love, Self Care and believing in yourself. Like, there are a lot of people in the world with these problems and issues. And I want to share my music to everyone with this message that they are not alone and that they will get through it. This is what I want to be doing in my Future. It’s the only thing I’ve been wanting to do for a very long time. Every since I was in Middle School, probably. I’m not sure. I just want everyone to know that they are not alone and that they can do anything. Peace Out!!

    If AI took all of the ‘boring’ jobs I’d love to be an animator. I’ve always wanted to work as an animator so this would be the perfect job. I wanted to be a part of creating something that inspires another kid like how shows like Gravity and DuckTales inspired me.

    In a world where AI swoops in to tackle all the boring stuff, leaving me with endless possibilities, I’d dive headfirst into a whirlwind of fun and creativity! Picture this: I’d be the ultimate adventure seeker, bouncing from one exhilarating experience to the next. From crafting wild stories that leap off the page to painting vibrant masterpieces that splash color into everyday life, I’d be living in a perpetual carnival of excitement. With the mundane chores out of the picture, every day would be a canvas waiting for my artistic flair to transform it into something magical. So, buckle up, because in this AI-powered playground, the fun never stops, and the adventures are always just a heartbeat away!

    I’d love to work in healthcare. Although AI probably benefited the world of health in advancements for surgeries, machines, and technology, there will also be a need for human interaction still in healthcare. Nothing is better than a familiar face, and caring for people is what I’d love to do. A skilled job to help people like being a surgeon or doctor would benefit the world and let AI develop even further to help the healthcare field.

    I’ve always enjoyed helping and educating the youth and so I think that if AI takes over I’d want to become a teacher. I would’ve wanted to be a teacher anyway because I like to babysit and tutor, but AI will also enhance lessons and give me ideas for the classroom. I think that AI can be used in a good way and can become a resource.
