7 weird jobs AI could spark by 2030
AI may take some jobs away, but it's also set to hand us careers that sound like they popped out of a sci-fi comedy. Jason Morris, the CEO of Profit Engine, predicts these seven new positions:
- Virtual Pet Therapist – As digital pets become hyper-realistic companions, people may need professionals to help them manage attachment and loss when these creations glitch, evolve, or "die." Now, there's someone to call when your VR parrot "flies away!"
- Digital Memory Curator – With so much of our lives stored online, curators could organize, preserve, and even edit personal digital archives-- like librarians for your data trails and memories. A sort of Marie Kondo for your internet footprint.
- Algorithm Bias Auditor – The hall monitor of tomorrow, keeping AI honest by making sure machines don't quietly learn bad habits or unfair biases.
- AI-Assisted Dream Interpreter – Equipped with brainwave data and smart algorithms, they'll help decode whether that recurring dream about falling means stress, growth-- or just bad pizza.
- AI Personality Designer – Imagine crafting custom personalities for digital assistants, robots, or virtual companions-- tailored voices, quirks, humor, and emotional responses included.
- Machine Learning Sommelier – A high-tech taste guide, pairing drinks or meals to your mood, health, or even your Spotify playlist.
- Virtual Environment Stylist – Here comes the HGTV of the metaverse, where interior designers craft VR offices, homes, and hangouts. Now, your boss can simulate that he's working from a Tuscan villa instead of his garage.
