New Delhi:- As the world prepares for a new era of artificial intelligence, a recently published study indicates that two groups are particularly affected: Asian Americans and women. According to research, they are already among the most exposed to AI in the workplace and could see some of their jobs displaced by new technology.

Published last week by the Pew Research Center, the study determined that of all American ethnic groups, Asian Americans have the highest proportion of workers regularly exposed to AI. This number is still relatively small and that is 24% of Asian American workers work in sectors classified as “most at risk,” followed by 20% whites, 15% blacks, and 13% Hispanics.

According to the report, “highest risk” means that the most important work activities can be modified or supported by AI. “It can help or hurt. "We don't know what the future holds," said Rakesh Kochhar, senior researcher at Pew and study author.

Jobs like budget analyst, data entry, and web development all rank as high-exposure fields. They tend to be well-paid, require a college degree, and are closely tied to technology. General managers, veterinarians, and sales managers are listed as examples of mid-exposure jobs, while plumbers, childcare workers, and employees Firefighters have low exposure to AI.

“Asian workers have the highest formal education,” says Kochhar. “They are more likely to be represented in analytical jobs that involve the latest technologies. And this is exactly where artificial intelligence comes into play.

Hispanic workers rank among the lowest in AI exposure, he said, because most of the population works in manual labor. “They tend to focus on construction, maintenance or landscaping industries where AI is not yet ubiquitous,” he said. "That could happen in the future."

According to the study, there are also significant differences in AI exposure between women and men in the workforce. 21% of women work in jobs most exposed to AI, compared to 17% of men. According to Kochhar, women tend to dominate jobs in the health and education sectors, while men account for more in industries such as construction or manufacturing.
