Researchers at Tufts University have developed an American AI Jobs Risk Index, identifying 33 high-risk occupations vulnerable to AI displacement, affecting around 4.9 million workers and $200 billion to $1.5 trillion in household incomes. The index assigns an exposure score to nearly 800 occupations, with web and digital interface designers, data scientists, and financial risk specialists at highest risk, while blue-collar jobs and low-paying occupations are less exposed.
