Jobs vulnerable to AI

Researchers at GovAI and Brookings estimated vulnerability to job displacement due to AI. For the Washington Post, Kevin Schaul and Shira Ovide charted the estimates on two dimensions: exposure and adaptability.

Estimating vulnerability is difficult, because a single factor like exposure isn’t enough. A job might have high exposure to AI tools, but that doesn’t always mean the job is at risk. You might just have new responsibilities and use the tools more.

I don’t think firefighting is in the cards for me. Maybe I’ll get into manicures. Although “other mathematical science occupations” has lowest vulnerability and high adaptability so maybe I have a few years left.
