i'm a really lazy forgeter

maybe a job where i can build robots
I'd say one precludes the other

No because mexicans will first

nah if jobs where i'm paid to find bugs in games are not automated i'd do that
Aside from the fact that we're automating testing (Unit Testing, look it up), being a game tester is an INCREDIBLY strenuous job, often taking long hours with incredible focus, and you need to have very strong English and communication skills, plus some knowledge of programming.

I wouldn't care if a robot took my job of doing chores.

hard to say. with the right society, more and more automation would result in significantly decreased cost of living, for everyone. it would become reasonable to have a small universal basic income to allow those without not-yet-automated skills to survive. free education would also significantly ease the burden, giving those people the opportunity to gain skills in fields they've been interested in but could never afford to learn about
the united states however is definitely the worst place for it to start, because people would rather allow those who lose their jobs to automation starve than support them, and corporations would likely choose to keep their prices the same despite their reduced costs
essentially this. job automation provides us with the best future as far as quality of life and the united states is on course to use it in the worst way possible.
