Anthropic has released a new study tracking the "exposure" of various occupations to AI.
Key takeaways:
- Artificial intelligence is far from reaching its theoretical potential: actual adoption still represents only a fraction of what is feasible.
- Occupations with higher exposure are projected to grow more slowly by 2034. (BTW, have you calculated how many years you have until retirement?)
- Workers in the most exposed professions are more likely to be older, female, highly educated, and better paid.
- Since late 2022, there has been no systematic increase in unemployment among highly exposed workers, though there is suggestive evidence that hiring of juniors in these occupations has slowed.
