I keep hearing AI experts say that electricians, plumbers, construction workers, gardeners, etc. will be some of the safest and best-paid jobs in an AI-driven future...is this real?

AI experts suggest that trades like electricians, plumbers, construction workers, and gardeners will be secure and well-compensated in an AI-driven future. However, a question arises regarding the sustainability of high wages if a significant increase in people pursuing these careers leads to an oversupply of labor. This potential influx could cause wages to fall, challenging the premise of these jobs remaining both safe and best-paid.

This discussion moves beyond the common assertion of AI-proof jobs by questioning the long-term wage stability if many people enter these trades, unlike typical analyses that focus only on current demand.
