I'm on the list, but I knew that already.  I don't know if they can adequately replace mathematicians and data scientists any time soon, but if they think they can, they will.   I hope to get through a couple more years and then be in position to retire if necessary.  AI has a lot of potential, but I know that it will be used so that the wealthy can get wealthier and short cuts will be made to eliminate as much labor as they can.

'Financial Advisor' I wonder about. I would guess people with enough means to managed will continue to afford themselves the luxury of a warm body to interact with. But maybe that will be a generational thing.

I think a lot of those are already in danger just as people become smarter and have access to more info.  I haven't used an airline booking agent since 2002, and that was a corporate booking thing thru American Express.  The company made us do it.

For some of it, I suspect it's similar to people thinking calculators and computers would get rid of engineers since it replaced slide rules.  No.  It was just a tool to help them be better.
