As a junior developer, is it even worth pursuing an "standard" career in technology if line engineers will be replaced by some kind of deep learning algo in 10-15 years? What career is even safe if we get to that level? When I see events and the pace of progress, it's hard to even justify any long term planning and I feel that (American) society is completely unprepared for the impact automation will bring.

Might as well go for my masters now, given that no one with a BS degree will be needed long term? Given a long enough timescale, even that won't matter I guess...
