Landscape Architecture requires capability to creatively visualize and plan/re-plan the landscape of an area, from very small to very large areas, including Landscape Planning for an entire country.

Robots can get creative if given set of limitations to work with like size of land, amount of money available, type of building and so on. Given these requirements, a robot can produce an architectural edifice

Robots will take my job for certain. The creative aspect is already being done with robots. The human interaction is absolutely not necessary.

Because the architects need to be creative to design the landscapes and robots cant replace that.

i think there is little chance because its almost impossible to get a robot to do an architects job.
