any other profession that can't be replaced by AI besides plumbers? I need to prepare for the worst for my software engineering career

Yes.
Farmer.

this already happened over two decades ago, outside of manufacturing farming is the most heavily automated profession to the point where little folks can't even breach the market because rich corporations with 500,000 acres just steamroll them with automated soil prep, sowing, tending, harvesting, sorting, cleaning, packing, and transporting. maybe you meant it ironically.

this gets you an extra 10 years, tops. the issue is that you will not find a job doing any of that except for friends because unions and an extremely saturated market.

Animal husbandry/veterinary care/dog walking.
Construction/Civil Engineering.
Nursing.
Government jobs with roles that don't put you behind a computer (USPS, Navy, Politician)
Scientific research/Academia (AI paper fraud aside, research is still research and valuable if it produces results/gets you grants/patents/etc)
Pharmacy (ground level, the guy preparing medicine, though this is hard profession to get into from what I hear)
Kitchen cook/chef.
Carpentry, and teaching hands on things like carpentry/cooking.
By the time AI takes the above, there will be much bigger problems than AI taking over what little jobs are left. So either there will be somekind of ubi utopia or you'll be dead/culled.

I inspect parts and sometimes building mining equipment. You can't affordably automate the process because everything needs shimmed and niggered to get it to work and most parts that get reused are on judgment calls, and it wouldn't be economical to use all new parts and housings with repeatable tight tolerances on a 1500 dollar level wind they're going to hook a chain on a drag underground behind a manbus that's going to fail in 6 months because the shuttlecar ran over its own cable and locked it up.
But I don't make shit for money either.

I work as a PM for a commercial roofing contractor. I have a job interview with another company today. It's actually not really a job interview, more just salary negotiation. Unironically AI will probably help me out with work because I do a lot of technical insurance claim work, and insurance carriers and their data vendors are all in on using AI for denials (I specialize in denials).

GL insurance will preclude a lot of robot bullshit on construction sites. Mexicans are far less expensive than hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of robot bullshit to install something like a roof. AI can't even into building code. I tried to use it for some engineering bullshit for an ASTM test on an EPDM membrane roof, and it couldn't even cite the correct codes despite them being listed in the document I had it analyze.
