All of the research that I've done as an undergrad has basically been data reduction/data analysis; I think that a narrow AI could be developed within 20 years to do all of what I've been doing with much greater efficiency. So much of it is automated/on the computer already that taking the extra step would not be relatively difficult.

Understanding specifically what I was doing and why took some time, and there are still things left for me to learn, but I think that that sort of work is not secure at all from being replaced by automation. If anyone is curious, I'm talking about the field of spectroscopic chemical abundance analysis.
