Automated Robotic Psychologist?


What a relief! It can't be done for now and the near future.... How would you feel being listened to by a robot? Well  but in Japan some some men date their virtual girlfriend... have to read yet people consulting a robotic psychotherapist...

So for now Psychologist are safe from losing their job. So better become licensed Psychologist or  RP.

What makes a job susceptible to automation?
Certain aspects of a job are simpler to automate than others.
Social workers, nurses, therapists and psychologists are among the least likely occupations to be taken over as assisting and caring for others, which involves empathy, is a crucial part of the job.
