1 . A March 2023 report from Goldman Sachs estimated that AI could do a quarter of all the work currently done by humans.     1     It would not just happen to individuals, but it could be pretty systemic.

    2     There are still things AI isn’t capable of. There are generally three categories that are probably going to be relatively secure in the foreseeable future.     3     That means you’re not doing formulaic work, but generating new ideas. For example, in science, medicine and law, where your job is coming up with a new legal strategy or business strategy, there’s going to continue to be a place for human beings.

The second category is jobs that require complicated interpersonal relationships like nurses, business consultants and investigative journalists. These are jobs where you need a very deep understanding of people.     4    

The third safe zone are jobs that really require lots of mobility and problem-solving ability in unpredictable environments. Electricians, plumbers, and the like all fall under this umbrella, where you’re dealing with a new situation all the time. They are probably the hardest of anything to automate.

It’s important to note that an advanced education is not a defence against AI takeover. In many cases, more educated workers are going to be more threatened than then even the least educated workers.     5     It’s really hard to automate that job.

In short, seeking roles in dynamic, shifting environments that include unpredictable tasks is good way to avoid job loss to AI.

Since the outbreak of the COVID pandemic, home workouts     1     (grow) more and more popular in China, experts say. Recently, Liu Genghong, a singer and fitness coach from Taiwan, has     2     (surprising) become an online hit for livestreaming (网络直播) workouts from his living room. Liu’s workout sessions are so popular     3     they have broken Douyin’s livestreaming record for 2022 so far.

On video-sharing platform Douyin, Liu appears with his wife Wang Wanfei, even     4     Saturdays for a 90-minute workout. They exercise and dance to up-beat songs while     5     (explain) and showing their moves. One of his most-watched     6     (routine) is set to “Herbalist Manual”, a fast-paced tune of Jay Chou,     7     is Liu’s best friend and a popular singer among young people.

Simple moves, fast-paced rhythms and energetic coaching, some fans say Liu’s workouts are    8     (good) than other forms of exercise. Some young girl fans even call     9     (they) “Liu Genghong girls”. However, although Liu’s dance moves look simple, for some of his audience they are too strong     10     (follow). Therefore, experts also warn that warming up and stretching all muscles and ligaments (韧带) before exercising are necessary.
