With deep learning, actuaries were inevitably, mostly obsolete, at some point. It’s unpleasant to think, that in a way, tech can now readily disrupt nearly any arbitrary office-worker knowledge industry at will, destroying businesses and specialties and concentrate both capability and wealth in ever fewer hands. Coding isn’t a “forever” specialty either... self-coding machines will create languages, protocols and systems humans will likely be unable to understand, limit, modify, monitor or audit.
