I asked ChatGPT what are the best jobs for Humans, as AI tools replace many jobs. What are jobs that AI can not easily replace?



Here’s the short list I’d bet on—the common thread is human judgment, trust, hands-on dexterity, or responsibilitythat AI can’t fully assume.

Where humans keep the edge

1) Relationship + trust

  • Physicians/NPs/therapists, social workers, teachers/tutors/coaches

  • Client-facing law (negotiation, litigation strategy), wealth advisors

  • Enterprise sales, account management, partnerships, fundraising

2) Open-ended problem solving

  • Product managers, founders, ops leaders, management consultants

  • Security/incident response, threat intel, red/blue teams

  • Policy, compliance, audit, and risk (AI governance, safety, model risk)

3) Physical work in unstructured settings

  • Electricians, plumbers, HVAC, solar installers, general contractors

  • Automotive technicians, avionics, marine, field service & maintenance

  • Healthcare hands-on: nurses, PT/OT, EMTs, surgical techs, radiology techs

4) Creative direction + taste

  • Editors, creative directors, brand strategists, UX leads, game/level designers

  • Investigative journalists, curators, community builders, event producers

5) Build & run AI systems (human-in-the-loop)

  • Data/product folks who ship: AI product manager, AI solutions architect

  • Prompt + eval + safety engineers; analytics + experimentation leads

  • Workflow automation engineers (RPA + LLMs tied to ops/finance/IT)

6) Critical infrastructure

  • Energy (grid, battery, nuclear/renewables), logistics, agriculture tech

  • Public sector: emergency management, urban planning, inspection/regulation

Roles likely to grow with AI (not be replaced by it)

  • Top-of-funnel creators who own distribution (newsletter/YouTube/Substack + products)

  • SMB owners using AI to 10× output (agencies, e-commerce, local services)

  • Technical trades + AI tooling (e.g., electricians using AR/LLM diagnostics)

  • Compliance/safety across finance, health, and AI itself (assurance, model risk)

What not to chase as a moat

  • Pure content piecework, undifferentiated copy/design, basic research summaries

  • Routine back-office tasks that are rules-based and screen-bound

How to make yourself “AI-complementary” fast

  1. Pick a domain (healthcare, energy, finance, trades, law, education).

  2. Master a stack: spreadsheets/SQL → Python basics → an LLM toolchain (prompting, retrieval, evaluation).

  3. Ship portfolio proofs:

    • “Agent that drafts & reconciles invoices for a local shop”

    • “Tutor bot + analytics that raises student quiz scores 20%”

    • “Field-tech playbook with photo intake → auto diagnostics → parts ordering”

  4. Measure outcomes (time saved, error rate, revenue lift) and lead with those in resumes/pitches.

  5. Lean into trust: certifications, licenses, and public case studies.

Want me to tailor this to your background and map 3 concrete job paths (skills, certs, first projects, and a 60-day plan) you could start now?

History of France -- France’s story stretches from Paleolithic caves to a nuclear-armed democracy at the heart of the European Union.

 


A Concise History of France

France’s story stretches from Paleolithic caves to a nuclear-armed democracy at the heart of the European Union. Its past is not a straight line but a braid of languages, faiths, dynasties, revolutions, and ideas that have radiated outward—law, literature, cuisine, philosophy, and the modern notions of citizenship and rights. What follows is an overview of the history of France, from early settlements to the Fifth Republic.

From Prehistory to Roman Gaul

Long before “France” existed, humans left traces in the southwest: the painted caves of Lascaux (c. 17,000 BCE) testify to complex symbolic life. By the first millennium BCE, Celtic-speaking peoples—whom Romans later called Gauls—lived in fortified hill towns (oppida), traded Mediterranean wine for northern metals and furs, and practiced syncretic religions alongside druids and local cults. Greek colonists founded Massalia (Marseille) around 600 BCE, linking the region to Mediterranean trade and ideas.

In the mid-1st century BCE, Julius Caesar conquered Gaul after long campaigns against tribal coalitions, notably the Arverni leader Vercingetorix, who surrendered at Alesia (52 BCE). Under Rome, Gallia prospered. Roads, aqueducts, and cities like Lyon (Lugdunum) embedded Roman law and Latin speech, while rural life blended Roman customs with local traditions. Christianity spread during late antiquity; bishops became pillars of urban life as imperial institutions waned.

The Franks, Charlemagne, and the Birth of a Kingdom

As the Western Roman Empire fractured in the 5th century CE, Germanic groups established successor states. The Franks, under Clovis of the Merovingian dynasty, consolidated much of Gaul, converted to Roman Christianity (c. 496), and secured the support of the Gallo-Roman clergy and aristocracy. After Merovingian decline, the Carolingiansrose; Charlemagne (r. 768–814) forged a vast empire across western and central Europe, crowned “Emperor of the Romans” in 800. Carolingian rule encouraged monastic learning and legal order, yet after Charlemagne the empire splintered. The Treaty of Verdun (843) divided the realm among his grandsons; West Francia, roughly the nucleus of modern France, went to Charles the Bald.

You can use AI tools like ChatGPT and Grok to ask medical questions, and learn what questions to ask your Physician.

AI tools like ChatGPT and Grok may not be perfect and sometimes give wrong information. They can also be very useful in helping people figure out what questions to ask their physicians.


Background:

About a year ago I had a blood test that showed very low blood platlets. My primary care physician was extermely concerned and told me I had to see a Hematologist. I had never seen a Hematologist previously and I quickly learned they are the doctors who test your blood for Cancer.

Luckily, I did not have Cancer, and they sent me to a Liver expert (Hematologist). I had a FibroScan, which showed that my liver was not causing my low blood platlets and severe fatigue. The liver doctor said that I am not properly diagnosed. 

Now this is when I decided to ask the AI tools to help me.

When platelets are “trapped” in the spleen, it’s usually because the spleen is enlarged (splenomegaly). An enlarged spleen holds on to far more platelets than normal (up to ~90% vs ~30–40%), a process called hypersplenism, which lowers the platelet count in blood tests.

Treatment:
Treatment depends on the underlying cause of hypersplenism. It may include: 
  • Treating the underlying condition (e.g., liver disease, infection)
  • Medications to suppress the spleen's activity
  • Splenectomy (removal of the spleen) in severe cases
Prognosis:
The prognosis for hypersplenism depends on the underlying cause and severity of the condition. With proper treatment, many people with hypersplenism can live full and healthy lives. 
Additional Information:
  • Hypersplenism can affect people of all ages, but it is more common in adults. 
  • It is important to seek medical attention if you experience symptoms of hypersplenism, as it can be a sign of an underlying serious condition. 

Common causes of an enlarged spleen → low platelets

  • Liver disease & portal hypertension: alcohol-related liver disease, viral hepatitis, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease, splenic/portal vein thrombosis (incl. from pancreatitis).

  • Hematologic cancers & marrow disorders: lymphomas, leukemias, myelofibrosis, other myeloproliferative disorders.

  • Infections: EBV/mononucleosis, CMV, HIV, malaria, tuberculosis, bacterial endocarditis, chronic hepatitis.

  • Autoimmune/inflammatory conditions: Felty’s syndrome (RA + neutropenia + splenomegaly), systemic lupus, sarcoidosis.

  • Infiltrative/storage diseases: amyloidosis, Gaucher disease.

  • Congestive causes: advanced heart failure, massive transfusion or severe hemolysis causing congestion.

What to do about it

  • Evaluate the cause: CBC with smear, liver panel, hepatitis/HIV tests as indicated, abdominal ultrasound (spleen size, portal/splenic veins), and targeted testing for suspected conditions.

  • Treat the underlying problem (e.g., manage liver disease, treat infection, address hematologic disorder). Platelets usually rise as the spleen shrinks or sequestration improves.

  • Urgent care if platelets <20–30k, active bleeding, new severe abdominal pain, fever, or confusion.

If you share any labs, symptoms, or known conditions, I can help think through what’s most likely in your situation—but this isn’t a diagnosis and doesn’t replace seeing a clinician.
