Experimental Physicist
Experimental physicists do hands-on tests to understand how the world works. They design experiments, collect data and figure out what it means, helping us build new technology and understand nature.
AI helps here, but has not taken over
AI can already do some of this job, but the day-to-day work still leans on a person to decide, check and take responsibility. Nothing formally protects this job though, so the safest move is to keep building the judgement AI cannot yet copy.
