A lot of manual labor can be fully or partially automated, it just isn't economically viable yet. If AI results in automation getting significantly cheaper, it is going to have an impact on manual labor too. We're already seeing this in practice at companies like Amazon. Rather than having a human walk around the warehouse and collect items, the items are brought to the human by robots moving storage units. The human is solely needed to take the item out of the storage unit and place it into a box. Once they figure out how to make robot arms that can pick up arbitrary objects, that job will disappear completely.
