The Wired Belts are the new Rust Belts: Report ranks which jobs are most vulnerable

Digital Planet, the research center at the forefront of researching the AI transformation at The Fletcher School at Tufts University, today released the American AI Jobs Risk Index. It is a first-of-its-kind data-driven framework that maps the potential of AI-driven job vulnerability across every major occupation, industry, metropolitan area, and state in the United States. Drawing on 15 years of labor market data and the most current AI adoption research, the Index goes beyond prior studies by measuring actual vulnerability to job loss—not merely exposure—and connecting that vulnerability directly to projected income loss and geography.
