There will also be need for nurses at a minimum until we have robots. But even then the sight of human faces will be valuable. What Doctors and teachers do will change but we will still have the professions.
I think the way certain things are taught will reverse. Instead of teaching accurate completion, we will teach accurate reasoning.

So for instance, instead of learning how to accurately complete equations, they may learn how to accurately identify the correct equation for AI to solve.

Open book exams may become more prevalent and instead of completion, reasoning and speed of the ability to identify the correct equation/prompts will be more important.

Calculators allowed in all exams, but higher emphasis on understanding and identifying BEDMAS correctly... etc.

I'm not trying to be an old man, but I've long felt that "A question well posed is a question half answered is a good mantra for problem solving. Spending a bit more time on confirming the accuracy of the problem is more important than just jumping into potential solutions and wasting too much time on detailing solutions that ultimately don't fit the situation."
