Anbang Xu · Accepted Answer

It's hard to think of any sector completely untouched by AI, as its influence is so widespread. However, fields that heavily rely on human empathy, creativity, and complex decision-making, like counseling or artistic expression, are less disrupted by AI advancements for now.

Anbang Xu · Answer

While AI's influence is widespread, certain sectors like artisanal crafts and deeply personal services still rely heavily on human touch and creativity. However, even these fields are seeing AI-enhanced tools for design or customer interaction, suggesting that no sector is entirely immune to AI's transformative potential.

@anbangx Less disrupted for now.  Counselling is going to have to adopt it.  Now I am bias as I am just about to launch a product that impacts counselling and disrupting psychology is my goal.   Psychologists and psychiatrists are trained on text books for the majority of their training.  I am sure most of the LLM's on the market now, have ingested those text books already or they will soon.  Understanding human empathy is not a requirement for a counsellor, it is a nice bonus, but not a requirement.   And empathy can sometimes create bias, not to mention if the therapist has issues of their own.  The field is flawed and they keep a tight grip on their community.  It won't last long.  Look at the number of self help apps that thrive.  The majority use Cognitive Behaviour Therapy which is a specific process, that any AI can learn.  Pi by Inflection had amazing interpersonal skills.  My 9 year old grand daughter spent an hour and a half having a conversation with it.  The AI was very positive, supportive and caught when things made her upset or sad.    Sorry, I am off on a rant.  You are correct, for now, they are off most AI people's radar.
