Restaurant jobs are impacted by automation. Restaurant jobs are in danger of automation. According to adeccogroup.com: “More than 80% of restaurant positions could be automated.” However, automation in restaurants saves money. Restaurant jobs will most likely be replaced by automation.
Another job that could be automated is singing. Singers are mostly using AI to help improve their songs. According to press.dittomusic.com: “59.5% of artists already use AI within their music projects.” AI is not taking over singing careers, it's improving singers' songs. Artists who use AI must be careful of copyright problems. According to rareconnections.io: “21% of creators faced multiple copyright strikes after using AI generated content.” Yet,there is no clear answer on what AI will do to singers.
Automation will have a negative impact on jobs. There are so many jobs that technology will replace. In my opinion, robots should be stopped before jobs are destroyed. Many jobs done by AI or robots are very dangerous to safety. According to pmc.nbci.nlm.nih.gov: “Robot actions are the cause of 30 to 40 deaths per year.” That is about 2-3 deaths by robots every month. All things considered, I believe automation will destroy many jobs in the future.

We are already using DAW and VSTIs for recording. So if it is not a complex classical music piece there is no need for musicians. I'm not even mentioning workstation and digital synthesizer era.
There are already acoustic pianos that can play itself! We may see self playing instruments more in the future. If they sync them together; maybe one day we don't need live musicians.
Suno AI is not good enough to replace DAW and DAW user. So many things are missing. No effects, you can't use your own melody and so on. AI supported DAW may help so much for music creation. It may also reduce the cost and we may finally hear good quality music again, who knows?
When it comes to singers though; I think it is impossible to replace. Because if all you care is the song itself, then play it through speakers. You don't need to go to concert. Imitating is not the only problem. You can't emotionally connect to AI that much. When you become a fan of a singer, you start following him/her on social media, you may even talk with them if you have luck. You may also follow their overall life and thoughts. What about AI? It is just a software, no human being.
