Anything where a human is still affordable and the task is perceived as better when done by a human.
The example I’m thinking of is a language tutor. If you only listened to AI hype, you’d think that tutors are going to be extinct in a year or two.
But the reality (which I have direct personal experience with) is that no one really wants to learn a language from a robot, no matter how human it seems or how sophisticated its learning algorithm is. Free or low cost language learning resources were already basically universal prior to recent AI tools.
At the end of the day, people want to have a human connection for many (but certainly not all) things. This includes the actual learning conversation, but also things like a weekly scheduled meeting, a relationship that grows over time, paid incentives to show up, and so on - things that some AI app is not going to be able to do.
If the cost of the human connection stays within reasonable limits, I don’t see it being eliminated by AI.
