Where are we heading to?

A lot has been said about the how over 90% of the trades today being controlled by computers..M still in my 2nd year of my graduation..wondering what to get into..equity research, S&T and portfolio management.

What would you suggest woud be a good decision, lets say 10 years from now? will trading be 100% computerised? will there be no more traders? and can i move from working as an ER analyst to starting my own Asset Management firm one day?
