I doubt this job will be taken by AI because using AI to study is no different than using the internet to study, which students have already been doing for decades at this point. Good tutors are crucial because they listen to the individual students and explain the subject in a way that benefits that particular individual the most. This requires a level of human connection and understanding that AI is incapable of.

Easiest yes in my opinion. Ask 1000 college students if they use ChatGPT and a solid 70% will say they already do.

I do this. One of the biggest parts of the job is motivating discouraged students! I don't think AI will be able to do that.
