US EditionTop 40 Jobs Most Likely to Be Impacted by AI
UNITED STATES, JUL 30 – Microsoft's study analyzed over 200,000 AI chatbot interactions to rank 40 jobs most affected, showing white-collar text-based roles face higher AI task augmentation risks.
- Microsoft released a 2024 study identifying 40 U.S. professions most and least impacted by AI using data from 200,000 Copilot chatbot conversations.
- The study developed an AI applicability metric that evaluates how well AI functions align with job responsibilities to understand how AI could transform tasks within occupations rather than entirely replace them.
- AI currently assists with tasks like summarizing reports, writing drafts, translating, and answering questions, especially in communication-related roles at higher risk.
- More than 8.4 million workers hold jobs in the 40 most impacted roles, including interpreters, translators, historians, and sales representatives, while manual and caregiving jobs ranked least affected.
- The findings suggest AI adoption accelerates task support but does not fully perform any occupation, highlighting the need to understand AI's socioeconomic effects and adapt workforce strategies.
