Most fine motor skills should be well within the grasp of robots/AI. Just look at what robot-assisted surgery can do today. But I believe soft fabrics and other easily deformed materials are still very difficult for them. So maybe time to brush up our cloth handling skills. However, it's also an area of active research, so probably not something to bank a 40-year career on. I for one welcome the day we're made redundant by AI/robots. We can easily become interesting and amusing enough to be kept as pets by our AI overlords.
