White House: 30% of US Jobs Highly Exposed to AI, Women Slightly More Vulnerable
• White House report found 10% of US workers are in roles highly exposed to AI and with lower performance requirements, making them more vulnerable to displacement
• 20% of American workers have high AI exposure; half of those also have low performance requirements
• Report suggests AI may increase income inequality if it displaces lower-wage jobs and complements higher-wage ones
• Men and women have similar AI exposure rates, but more women (12%) than men (9%) are in roles with both high AI exposure and low performance requirements
• Report says automation may change jobs without eliminating them entirely (e.g. school bus drivers may still be needed to monitor kids' behavior)
