You have to run your business. I recommend business in the food industry and also hairstyling. Doesn't matter what we invent, we want to eat delicious foods. Small supermarkets, and small restaurants, are very profitable businesses locally.
I also recommend hair salons. At the moment there isn't any AI that can cut your hair. Being a barber or having a hair salon business is a safe bet in 21st century to my min.
I haven't cut my hair for years in a barber, but aside that, i would think that those, like many others are going to be jobs where cheapest labor wins. And where i am going with that is that whole industry would be dominated by monopolies that do it cheaper. You can obviously run your own salon, or be a chef, but how are you making money when competition is high and salary is low because of competition.

You might be able to afford to keep your shop open, but eventually you probably would need to go working to the people who are running that monopoly. And once again, high changes to being laid off becomes a problem again.
