A profession of the future?

[Moreno]

Which occupation do you think is capable to create huge or almost infinite number of jobs in the future? Or unemployment will always grow due to automation and an eternal vocation is what majority of humans have to expect?

It won’t be infinite, but healthcare will continue to grow, as will service jobs generally.

I'm not sure it is a long term trend.

I think creativity is one of the few fields which may never get automatized.

I think the several groups of distinct occupations for computer software, hardware, database and so on will continue to be a source of jobs, though I don't think "create huge" applies.

Agreed, jobs where human interaction is essential.
