Anthropic is tracking which jobs are most exposed to AI. These 10 professions top the list.
Anthropic has built what it calls an "early warning system" tracking which US jobs are most exposed to AI automation. Computer programmers top the list at 75% task exposure, followed by customer service reps (70%), data entry keyers (67%), and medical record specialists (67%). The researchers found "limited evidence that AI has affected employment to date" — but the exposed professions are projected to grow more slowly through 2034, and the workers most at risk tend to be older, female, more educated, and higher-paid. The least exposed jobs are physical: groundskeepers, cooks, mechanics, lifeguards.
