Editor's note: Plenty of folks have been worried that AI is coming for their jobs – or their entire industry...  We've all heard about actual AI-related layoffs. But in other industries, AI is increasing job opportunities.  That brings us to today's essay from our friend Joel Litman... Longtime readers will remember Joel. He's the founder and chief investment officer at our corporate affiliate Altimetry. He's also a forensic accounting expert. This essay from Joel was published in the September 17 edition of the free Altimetry Daily Authority e-letter. In it, he discusses how AI increased demand for workers in one specific field instead of killing it as expected... The Industry AI Was Supposed to Replace By Joel Litman, chief investment officer, Altimetry  When Geoffrey Hinton sees a radiologist, all he thinks of is Wile E. Coyote... Hinton is one of the key architects of modern AI. His work on neural networks helped turn machine learning from an academic curiosity into a deep-learning boom. Now, it powers everything from basic image recognition all the way to chatbots. In short, he's partially responsible for the breakthrough that lets computers "learn" like humans. This man knows what he's talking about when it comes to AI. And in 2016, he believed one medical profession was about to take a nosedive... "Looney Tunes" style. According to Hinton, 10 years ago, radiologists were acting an awful lot like the infamous cartoon coyote. They were already over a cliff. They just hadn't looked down yet. In the simplest terms, radiology is image analysis... Specialists look at patient scans and diagnose injuries and illnesses. And AI thrives on image analysis. Feed a model millions of scans... let it learn the patterns tied to identifying tumors or fractures... and eventually it should outperform a human eye. A machine doesn't get tired on the night shift. Nor does it lose focus after its hundredth scan. AI can compare one image with a mountain of prior examples in an instant. Hinton predicted that within five years, by 2021, deep learning would do the job better than a human radiologist. Even if it took a full decade, he said the direction was clear. Radiologists were doomed. A lot of those very radiologists felt the same chill. The field had already lived through a few earlier sky-is-falling moments. Digital imaging and computer-aided detection were both considered major threats. This one felt bigger. And to be fair, AI has flooded the field. Radiology has become one of the busiest AI proving grounds in all of medicine. But even the brightest minds can be wrong sometimes...

That's why Marc Chaikin and Louis Navellier – two legendary investors with a combined CENTURY of Wall Street experience – are joining forces. They've helped Americans make untold wealth during some of the most painful periods in market history. Now, they're stepping forward to warn YOU of an extreme midterm-election market event headed straight for U.S. stocks in early October.

The Man Who Called the 2025 Crash Issues Another Warning An imminent turning point in the stock market could double your money on a move greater than any we've seen yet this year. There is a 93% historical chance of this move occurring, according to the fintech CEO who called the 2025 crash and rally – three months before it unfolded. Click here for his full warning (and two free recommendations). And that includes Hinton. Algorithms do take a first pass at flagging urgent scans. Some PET-scan reconstruction tools can shrink scan times from 20 minutes to five. One kidney-volume offering now saves 15 to 30 minutes per case. But human radiologists aren't looking for their next careers. In fact, they're more in demand than ever. American diagnostic radiology residency programs offered a record 1,208 positions last year... up 4% from 2024. Vacancy rates hit all-time highs. Radiology ranked as the second-highest-paid medical specialty in the country in 2025. Average annual income sat around $520,000 – almost 50% above the 2015 average. The Bureau of Labor Statistics projects that radiology employment will grow 5% from 2024 to 2034, ahead of the 3% average across all occupations. At the Mayo Clinic alone, the radiology staff has grown 55% since Hinton's warning. AI got very good at one slice of the job. But radiologists cover a lot more than one slice... Reading the image is only the first step. In one study, only 36% of staff radiologists' time was spent on direct image interpretation. These folks also advise surgeons and physicians based on their findings. They still have to oversee exams, too. Investors often focus on how AI can replace one task. And they often assume that means AI can replace an entire role... or even an entire company. But it's rarely that simple. The market has slapped many companies with the "loser" label because of AI... Folks see a chatbot or a reasoning model... and assume every software company is about to get bulldozed. That kind of irrational panic creates some of the best opportunities in the market. When investors price in a company's destruction before AI has disrupted its business, the stock becomes cheap relative to what the business is earning. That has led to a growing disconnect between the strong earnings and discounted prices of these companies. Hinton's prediction about radiology is now a decade old. The profession didn't just survive – it thrived. And years from now, many of the other industries "doomed" by AI will likely tell a similar story.
