American AI Jobs Risk IndexTufts University researchers created the American AI Jobs Risk Index to anticipate which occupations are most vulnerable to displacement amid the rise of artificial intelligence.

And the findings are alarming: More than 9 million American jobs are “at risk of displacement in the next two to five years,” study authors suggest, calling out 33 “tipping point” occupations most vulnerable to AI takeover.Nearly 800 jobs were assigned an “exposure score,” ranking those most at risk — including computer programmers, web designers, financial planners, data scientists and, yes, authors and journalists.American Airlines passengers shocked to learn their 'flights' were actually bus routes: 'There's no plane' Unlucky beauty pageant contestant shocks viewers after losing her teeth mid-speech — then bravely continues on “We already know that AI is not just automating routine tasks — it is moving up, targeting the cognitive and analytical work that defines high-skill, high-wage careers,” said Bhaskar Chakravorti, Tufts University dean of global business,. “The jobs of the future will be secured by those with a combination of subject-matter expertise, critical-thinking skills for human judgment, and knowledge of AI and how to use it.” The jobs at highest risk of AI takeover are also some of the highest paid, including computer programmers, financial planners and web designers.AI could wipe out 100M US jobs – from nurses to truck drivers – over the next decade: report “Physical, manual, and variable-condition work face less than one percent displacement,” the report read. “The occupations AI cannot touch are largely those the economy has always undervalued.” Tufts researchers also incorporated geography into their report, noting that workers in urban hubs as well as university towns are some of the most threatened. “Our index makes clear that the question is no longer whether AI will displace significant numbers of workers, but in which states and cities, how fast, and whether we are prepared by taking pre-emptive action,” said Chakravorti. “The geography of this disruption has real political consequences: the states and metros most at risk are already the most active in seeking AI regulation — and the federal government is telling them to stand down.”Tiger Woods released from prison, appears to have returned home after arrestKendra Duggar goes into hiding at ‘very private’ location with children after being released from jailStream It Or Skip It: 'Jo Nesbø's Detective Hole' On Netflix, Where A Troubled Detective Tracks Down A Serial Killer Who Is Terrorizing Oslo
