I disagree - unless / until AI becomes self-reliant, the tech industry will continue to blossom. We'll always need people to design, build, and maintain the fast food kiosks that replace the teenager at McDonalds. And I don't see the skilled blue-collar jobs going away in our lifetime - we'll still need plumbers, HVAC specialists, electricians, mechanics, etc.
What we don't need is more people with MBAs or degrees in philosophy, gender studies, etc - if an education is not highly specialized in an area there will continue to be needs, it's pointless. But those with the foresight to get an education in those areas will be employable and will have work.
We've heard for decades (centuries?) that we're quickly approaching a time when there's no work as automation, industry, etc replace the worker, yet we don't see that at all, even today. We just have fewer people working in steel mills and more people sitting in front of computers.
