Opinionated:
Artificial Intelligence is simply intelligence exhibited by computers. With the momentum that AI is gathering, some jobs will become redundant or very few hands will be required to do same jobs. In other cases, you may need to improve your skills. Whatever the case may, Jumia Travel identifies 5 jobs that may be replaced by robots or computers. To this in perspective, AI will take 6% of jobs in 2021.

Doctors

AI is currently being used to identify some medical problems and recommend drugs for treatment. IT also helps you to keep track of your health for easy diagnosis in future. The advantage of AI is that there will be nothing like medical mistakes unlike when humans handle it.

Taxi drivers

totally agreed expecially that doctor.


Google, Uber and other tech companies are desperately working to ensure that cars will be able to drive itself. If they eventually achieve this, drivers will not need to drive cars anymore. The right sensors and communication will drive you wherever your location.

Journalism

The jobs of reporters, editors and content writers may not be under threat. But the number of hands needed to report or write a story will significantly drop. An AI called wordsmith can read through data or a disjointed story, pick out the interesting part, and write a story. It has been used by Associated Press and Yahoo.

Customer service/Receptionist

Sorry, but customer service is one of the services that may not involve humans. Computers will be able to communicate with customers and provide relevant information to these same customers without any hitches. There are quite a lot of AI programs or software dedicated to customer service.

Personal Assistant

Entrepreneurs and business executives don’t actually need PAs anymore. AI-based programs can perform the functions of a PA.

Artificial intelligence is just an innovative to replace humans on earth. This concept alone is enough to believe that the end time would come.

There was a project to immortalize humans by mapping human intelligence into robots so that great people don't just die but having robots who could think logically like the genius.

Op, you nailed it on the taxi drivers...

Soon, self-driven vehicle will occupy that position. But that makes things better anyway when you can control more vehicles as a taxi owner just by sitting at the office or home.

Presently, it's still a hot debate if robots could supersede human brain. Truly, robots can not think logically but could think faster. The human logics is built upon experience as we could've been reasoning and acting like untamed animals if we live among them. In hundreds of years to come, millions of life situations can be programmed into robots for them to use equations to judge and evaluate.
Thoughts that made impossibilities of past centuries to become reality would improve AI in century to come.

HAH:
Why are people surprised that doctors are there.?

Even without AI most of the leg work is done by other health sector personnels in the hospital for eg

Lab scientist will conduct test, radiologist will take x rays, pharmacist will make and dispense drugs etc the doctor only joins the puzzle to get an answer, even now I believe an app can easily diagnose for you when all results are input into it,

The only doctors that cannot easily be replaced by AI may be surgeons but even that can by robots
I smell spoilt beans . So you mean that robots cannot take blood samples, cannot compute, compound and dispense drugs, and cannot take xray images? You are just a doctor hater who has not left Nigeria.

Logical thinking is one thing that robots cannot have.Its a special feature God gave to man.But if man is able to implement this into robots, the fact remains that robots can never be more intelligent than humans because humans built them.They can only be more "efficient" in handling tasks that they are programmed to perform.

It is only in this country that one wishes to study computer science and many people think he or she has taken an underrated course.Medicine is considered more lucrative than computer science.What an irony.
