yes, I think so too. Surely engineering in particular will be an AI field

It's hard to know what to recommend now, but surely creativity is something it won't be able to do 'authentically'? Maybe though.

I'd like to think that with Ai doing everything cheaply (eventually) mankind will be better off, but I think we already know that most people won't...
