A recently released research paper, conducted with the help of and approved by Microsoft, reveals 40 career roles with the most and least AI applicability score.
What is AI applicability score?
The study defines AI applicability score as the measure of "nontrivial AI usage that successfully completes activities corresponding to significant portions of an occupation's tasks."

In general, the occupations with highest AI applicability scores are knowledge work and communication focused occupations, according to the study.
