> This is why there are certain jobs AI can never take

You're thinking too linearly imo. Your examples are where AI will "take", just perhaps not entirely replace.

Ie if liability is the only thing stopping them from being replaced, what's stopping them from simply assuming more liability? Why can't one lawyer assume the liability of ten lawyers?

Then there will still be lawyers. More productive, higher income lawyers.

Just like with a lot of other jobs that got more productive.

People who think like this cannot be convinced; they're unaware of the acceleration of the rate of progress, and it won't change until they clash with reality. Don't waste your time and energy trying to convince them.

They don't understand how to calibrate their model of the world with the shape of future changes.

The gap between people who've been paying attention and those who haven't is going to increase, and the difficulty in explaining what's coming is going to keep rising, because humans don't do well with nonlinearities.

The robots are here. The AI is here. The future is now, it's just not evenly distributed, and by the time you've finished arguing or explaining to someone what's coming, it'll have already passed, and something even weirder will be hurtling towards us even faster than whatever they just integrated.

Sometime in the near future, there won't be much for people to do but stand by in befuddled amazement and hope the people who set this all in motion knew what they were doing (because if we're not doing that, we're all toast anyway.)
