If ambiguous, resolves to manifold moderators' opinion in 2035. May resolve to a percentage if ambiguous. I'm open to ideas for more specific requirements.
Some clarification:
robots count digital robots and physical robots
The intent is that if the average person in 2035 considers a job to have been taken over by robots, that job resolves NO. So "taken over" may be vague, but non-absolute, but if almost every job that exists today is gone in that sector then, people would probably agree robots have taken it over.

The meaning of the question is ambiguous because of the negative in the wording though this is cleared up in the comments. It would have been better to have made the questions without the “not”.
@Bayesian the job of fluffier don't really exist today. This can resolved to NO.

The role of a **fluffer** in the context of the adult film industry has significantly evolved and, according to many industry insiders, is largely considered obsolete today.
## Definition and Historical Context
A fluffer is traditionally defined as a person employed on a pornographic film set to ensure that male performers maintain an erection between takes. This role often involved physical stimulation, which could include sexual acts, although it was not always necessary[1]. The term gained popularity in the 1970s and became associated primarily with the adult film industry.
## Current Relevance
Several factors contribute to the decline of fluffers in modern pornography:
- **Medical Advancements**: The introduction of medications like Viagra has made it easier for male performers to maintain erections without the need for assistance. This has reduced the reliance on fluffers during filming[1].
- **Changes in Production Practices**: Many performers now rely on personal techniques or use prosthetics that eliminate the need for a fluffer. As a result, fluffers are reportedly only utilized in specific scenarios, such as during gangbang or bukkake scenes, rather than in standard adult films[1][4].
- **Industry Perspectives**: Notable figures within the adult film industry have stated that fluffers are largely a thing of the past. Some performers have expressed that they can manage their own needs without external help, further diminishing the role's necessity[1].
## Conclusion
While fluffers may have existed in significant numbers during earlier decades of adult filmmaking, their role has diminished greatly due to advancements in medical technology and changes in filming practices. Today, many performers do not require fluffers at all, suggesting that this job is not commonly found in contemporary adult film production.

@FranklinBaldo Even more evidence that fluffers are extinct: I scoured every corner of the internet and found no VICE article titled 'I Worked as a Fluffer for a Month—Here's What I Learned About the Industry.' If VICE hasn't covered it, did it even exist?!

That's a very interesting question! But we still need good resolution criteria. When is a job considered "taken over"? When no one is doing this job anymore? When the number decreases by a percentage compared to today? What data do you want to use for this? For which country do the statements apply? By "robot" do you mean automated physical labour or is an AI that performs purely cognitive work also a "robot"?
