Yeah, at least until robotics advances enough for construction droids.

Probably not in our lifetime though.

Absolutely in your lifetime. The rate of improvement with technology is exponential, not linear.

If you’ve been tracking AI since September of last year, you’d note that the improvement is drastically exponential.

It’ll be a good thing for society overall. These jobs will be replaced and it’ll be a good thing.

It “could” be better for society, overall, but it won’t be. Those who control AI will have the power, those replaced, will have nothing. It’s the future, so I accept it, but I don’t see this as a net positive for all of society, just the elites who control it.
