10 jobs in NJ that have workers most worried about being replaced by AI

Does artificial intelligence give you the creeps? Welcome to the club.

AI can create videos of you doing unspeakable things you never did, and you’d swear it was real. It can steal your voice and have you saying things you would never say.

But can it steal your job? That’s the big concern.

Certain jobs are a lot more concerned than others. With good reason. AI won’t ask for time off.

AI will create faster than you, work 24 hours a day, and not even demand its own office.
The website Careerminds surveyed over 3,000 employees from various fields to determine and compare stress levels that certain careers are experiencing.
