AI threat to jobs is growing

In today’s fast-changing world of technology, robotics and artificial intelligence are making a significant impact across industries. AI systems that compete with human labor are becoming a real threat to many professions. Below, we explore the fields most threatened by AI.

Accountants — 94% risk of replacement

Modern accounting software can process financial operations, verify bank accounts, and complete tax documents. This greatly reduces the need for human accounting assistants.

Translators — 71% risk of automation

AI-based translation tools can interpret context and translate in real time across multiple languages. Except for cases requiring creativity and deep nuance, demand for traditional translation services is decreasing.

Customer service operators — 80% at risk

Chatbots and virtual assistants are providing fast and accurate responses to routine questions. In tasks like billing, orders, and data updates, they are becoming more efficient than human agents.

Drivers — autonomous transport is advancing

Companies like Tesla and Waymo are rapidly implementing self-driving vehicles. This poses a serious threat to long-distance truck drivers and taxi drivers.

Security guards — moderate risk level

Technologies like facial recognition and motion analysis can detect threats and alert authorities automatically. Still, full security without human involvement is not yet achievable.

Pharmacists — 50% chance of automation

AI can manage prescriptions, stock levels, and medication recommendations. However, human supervision remains important in many cases.

Receptionists — 92% risk of replacement

AI systems handle registration, appointment scheduling, and information delivery more efficiently, reducing the need for human front desk staff.

Financial analysts — about 70% at risk

AI is capable of analyzing massive data sets and offering investment insights. This pushes the analyst profession into a new, more AI-integrated era.

Cashiers — 89% at risk due to self-checkouts

Self-service kiosks, mobile payments, and Just Walk Out technology enable shopping without human interaction, lowering the demand for cashiers.
