I read a novel recently that took place on a slave-crewed fishing boat. The "captain" was an AI, because analyzing market data and weather reports etc and deciding where to work, when and where to unload was something it was well suited to. Physically hauling nets and gutting fish was nowhere in the near future so human labor remains doing that. I think a less extreme form of this dynamic is coming for most of us in the next decade or two. And an exactly as extreme form coming for some of us.
