Banking/PE vs Law vs Consulting Future Prospects?

Which career has a greater future in this new age of technology? Lawyers, bankers/private equity associates or consultants?

Will any of them be automated first or will it all generally occur around the same time as each other?

If someone was interested in all 3, which should they avoid due to future obsolescence?
