The pharmaceutical and medicine manufacturing industry presents considerable barriers to AI displacement due to its complexity, stringent regulatory requirements, and high capital investment needs. The specialized nature of the workforce further limits the scope for full automation, although there are specific areas where AI can augment existing processes. Overall, the industry's resistance to change and the critical importance of human oversight in ensuring drug safety and efficacy indicate a low risk of complete AI displacement.
