The hardest hit sectors will be retail, finance, education, and real estate, according to analysts. <\/p>\n

A new report<\/a> from The Gerald Huff Fund for Humanity reveals that Artificial Intelligence (AI) is expected to impact tens of millions of jobs in the United States. In its groundbreaking report titled \u201cImpact of AI on Workers in the United States,\u201d researchers concluded that AI could impact more than 45 million jobs by 2028.<\/p>\n

Nonprofit leaders say the report serves as a warning that action is needed as Americans enter an \u201ceconomic upheaval on a scale seen only once a century.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWe can\u2019t retrain our way out of this,\u201d said Gisele Huff, founder and president at the Gerald Huff Fund for Humanity. <\/p>\n

Huff created the nonprofit in 2019 to honor her husband, Gerald Huff. He died in 2018 from pancreatic cancer. Before his passing, <\/strong>Gerald\u00a0was a principal software engineer at Tesla and became an advocate for developing solutions to the problem of technological unemployment. He was a staunch advocate for Universal Basic Income (UBI). <\/p>\n

\u201cUBI is a transitional solution and is essential to give people the security and agency to navigate AI-driven change,\u201d Gisele Huff added.<\/p>\n

About The Report On AI Impact on the U.S. Economy<\/h2>\n

The study analyzed 745 occupations across 20 major U.S. industries using labor data from the U.S. Department of Labor\u2019s O*NET database<\/a> and the NAICS industry classification system. Each occupation was evaluated for an \u201cAI Disruption Score,\u201d which examined the likelihood of tasks within the role being automated by AI. Other factors evaluated include an AI creation score, which analyzes the potential for AI to create new functions or job categories.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately, the Retail Trade sector faces the highest projected impact with an estimated 6.6 million jobs at risk, according to the report. Healthcare and Social Assistance (6.4 million jobs) is closely behind retail. Educational Services (4.6 million jobs) and Finance and Insurance (2.2 million jobs) are also top industries that AI could impact. <\/p>\n
