There are some tasks than could be automated, but AI is still inaccurate and incomplete. Geoscientists need to incorporate knowledge and skills from several different disciplines within geoscience.

to be a geoscientist you need to travel in the field, collect rocks, analyze sequences, understand and interpret what are you seeing. Maybe AI can help, but you really need to build a full terminator to replace a geologist.

When I started in geology the best way to map was on horseback with a drafting board on my lap. Close enough that I could see outcrops, far enough that I wasn't bogged down with minutia. Now I don't need a horse because my iPad is my map that keeps track of exactly where I am and my cell phone is my Brunton compass, that I use to interpret and document the orientation of structural features. AI won't be able to brush away leaves and dirt to see actual outcrops so that's one winner for live geologists. On the other hand geologic reports include a lot of "boiler plate" text that explains why we are reporting what has included in our reports and how we derived those opinions. AI should be great for this, but it dumps more responsibility on us to make sure that there are no misinterpretations or hallucinations.
Overall I see AI as just another tool that can help us do a better job.

Geoscience is an EXTREMELY complex field. It combines many different aspects, from mathematics to advanced physics, even sociology! It is extremely hard to automate this intricate and complicated work. Not to mention, geoscience connects to sociology, requiring a perspective on social policies, which is quite hard for AI to replicate.

Whilst AI or just simply computers play a crucial role in the industry, the human factor is definitely here to stay

It requires doing things that I believe robots will not be advanced enough to do in 20 years.

Paleontologists probably not. While robots can have extreme precision, humans can see things which AI programs can't

Geologists don't work with numbers, they work with human common sense, theoretical geology ofen doesn't apply in the real world, so you can program a robot that knows everything and it will be dumbfounded when it finds a yellow basalt (yes they exist). Some tasks we do may be automated, sutch as calculations and rock thin section descriptions, that will only allow us to be more productive and focous on the aspects that really matter. There is no replacement for human geometric thinking and thus no way geologists will be replaced by robots

As a student Geologist I agree but I think you’ll still need a Geologist to program the robot. Even in Car manufacturing assembly line still has engineers. Correct/advise me if I’m wrong.👍

When your talking about a (Geologist) this occupation isn't really going to be ''automated'' cause' this work needs to be done by a human not really by computerized bots. I disagree with that but let's say an archaeologist place it'll be possible to replace the work of an archaeologist by AI cause recently AI has discovered some archaeological data that was yrs ago. I believe that this occupation will still live. It will not most likely be taken by AI I'm 100% confident.
