Data-Driven Analysis
AI Job Risk Index
How vulnerable is your job to AI automation? Each role is scored 0–100 based on six research indicators — from AI capability mapping to real-world displacement events. The higher the score, the more urgent the risk.

Transparent Methodology
How We Calculate Risk Scores
Every score is derived from a weighted composite of six research pillars. We combine quantitative data (labor market signals, displacement events) with qualitative assessment (task decomposition, human advantage). No single indicator determines a score — it's the convergence of evidence that matters.
AI Capability Mapping
We assess which specific tasks within each role current AI systems (LLMs, vision models, robotics) can perform today — not theoretical future capability, but production-grade tooling that companies are actively deploying.
Key Indicators
Labor Market Signals
We analyze real-world hiring data, job posting trends, and wage movements to detect early signs of demand shifts. A decline in postings or stagnating wages often precedes large-scale displacement.
Key Indicators
Displacement Event Tracking
Our tracker monitors confirmed layoffs, restructurings, and hiring freezes explicitly linked to AI adoption. These real events validate or adjust theoretical risk predictions.
Key Indicators
Human Advantage Assessment
Not all work is automatable. We evaluate each role's reliance on uniquely human capabilities — empathy, physical dexterity, creative judgment, ethical reasoning, and complex stakeholder management.
Key Indicators
Task Decomposition
Rather than scoring a job title as a monolith, we break each role into its component tasks and assess each one individually. A role is high-risk when the majority of its time is spent on automatable tasks.
Key Indicators
Trend & Momentum
Risk is dynamic. A role that was safe 2 years ago may now be vulnerable. We weight recent acceleration — how fast AI capabilities are improving in the specific domain and whether adoption is accelerating.
Key Indicators
Score Interpretation
75–100%
Critical Risk
Core tasks already automated. Significant displacement underway.
50–74%
High Risk
Major portions automatable. Active transition in progress.
25–49%
Moderate Risk
Some tasks automatable. Role evolving but not disappearing.
0–24%
Low Risk
AI assists but cannot replace. Physical, empathetic, or judgment-heavy.
