AI and the future of work: which jobs are at risk

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.
 
Graph for those who enjoy envisioning their future:
