Frequently asked questions
Q.What makes a job "safe" from AI in this ranking?
This list ranks professions by the lowest AI risk scores. These roles tend to rely on physical presence, hands-on skill, complex human judgement, or close interpersonal trust — the parts of work that today's AI handles poorly.
Q.Does a low score mean the job is completely safe?
No job is fully immune. A low score means the core tasks are hard to automate with current AI, but parts of almost any role can still be supported or sped up by AI tools. Treat a low score as lower relative exposure, not a guarantee.
Q.Which qualities tend to protect a job from automation?
Manual dexterity, work in unpredictable physical environments, responsibility for high-stakes decisions, creativity grounded in lived experience, and relationships that depend on human trust all make a role harder for AI to replace.
Q.How often is this ranking updated?
The scores are refreshed every week from our AI Job Risk Index, so even the safest roles are re-checked against the latest AI developments.
