The definitive list of jobs most at risk of being replaced by artificial intelligence.

With artificial intelligence, there's no turning back. This is one of the phrases many experts in the field use to assert what will happen with this technology, as there are many dangers involved in operating with it . Although we are still far from fully understanding its potential, it is clear that it presents both opportunities and risks.

One of the main topics of debate is its impact on human employment . The concerns are more than real, as it's not just a matter of imagining what will happen in a few decades, but also of observing what is already happening. In this context, Microsoft has prepared a study listing the 40 professions most at risk .

Professions at risk from AI, according to Microsoft

As we can see, of all the jobs listed, a large majority are related to writing and language , but AI really has the ability to facilitate many of the tasks in any of them. In the study, Microsoft researcher Kiran Tomlinson states that those related to research, writing, and communication are especially at risk, but also makes it clear that it cannot fully perform any of these jobs.

More than 8 million jobs in Spain are at risk due to AI.

According to a report following the recent United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, the AI market is estimated to reach $4.8 trillion and that up to 40% of jobs worldwide could be affected by automation in the coming years.

If we calculate this in relation to Spain, where there are currently around 21.8 million people employed , according to the latest data from the National Statistics Institute, this means that more than 8 million jobs (8.7) are potentially at risk by 2033 .
