A new Microsoft study ranks the 40 jobs most at risk of being replaced by AI and the 40 roles that are safest for now. Find out if your career is on the list.

As you can see, most of the jobs here are so-called “knowledge economy” jobs—careers that involve learning about, analyzing, and communicating specialized information. On the other hand, the jobs that don’t have much AI applicability are decidedly more blue-collar. They are as follows:

A new Microsoft report ranks 80 professions by their risk of being replaced by AI tools. Microsoft study identified jobs most, and least affected by AI.

A new Microsoft study reveals which jobs are most exposed to generative AI disruption—historians, translators, and sales reps top the list, while hands-on labor remains relatively safe.

Researchers at Microsoft have tried to figure out which jobs are most and least likely to be replaced by generative AI.

Microsoft has released a revealing list of 40 occupations most at risk from generative AI—including many that traditionally required college degrees. Forget robots replacing factory workers: the new wave of automation is coming for translators,

A new study from Microsoft reveals 40 jobs most exposed to generative AI, meaning AI can perform many of their key tasks. At the top are interpreters and translators, followed by historians and passenger attendants.
