Literally every one of these things can be partially or completely automated
right now. Those automated solutions will be widely available pretty quickly.

The services they require like plumber, accountant, dog sitter, caterer, etc... are unlikely to be automated anytime soon either. Retail is dead, due to the internet and direct ordering, not automation.

Direct ordering is largely automated, and soon delivery will be as well, which is in part what allows those services to undercut retail costs, so you're wrong about that. Second, again, you may still need a human plumber, but a small business accountant? Nope. Dog sitter? Nope. Caterer? Maybe, but it'll employ far fewer people due to many functions being automated. You've seriously underestimated what even dumb, narrow AI is
already capable of.
