It's going to hit so unevenly. My partner works with children at a homeless shelter, I'm an algorithm designer. I'm certain my job will be obsolete before my partner's is.
It's going to automate away nearly all pure desk jobs. Starting with data entry, like you've seen, but it'll come for junior SDEs and data scientists too. Customer service, then social media/PR, then marketing, as it culls the white collar. Graphic design is already struggling. But janitors will still keep their jobs because robotics is stuck at Roomba stage.
It's going to be fascinating. I can't think of a time in the past where white-collar jobs have been made obsolete like this.
