A world leading employment website has listed the fastest and highest paying jobs at the lowest risk of being taken over by Artificial Intelligence in the foreseeable future, with up to 1.3million jobs are expected to be automated in Australia by 2028. 

US employment website Resume Genius listed the top 10 AI-proof jobs from highest paid to lowest paid with physician assistants ranked at number one, followed by nurse practitioners and veterinarians in third spot.

Medical and health services managers were fourth, followed by physical therapists, occupational therapists, speech-language pathologists, audiologists, epidemiologists, orthotists and prosthetists rounding.

With a median salary of $160,000 a year,  physician assistants perform diagnostic and therapeutic procedures that need high levels of manual dexterity, complex problem-solving, and interpersonal skills, which make the job unsuitable for AI.

Similarly nurse practitioners also have to possess complex problem-solving, creativity, and strong interpersonal skills, which aren’t AI strong points.

Both medical roles also involve intricate hand movements and precise coordination, which machines have yet to demonstrate. 

Vets, who take home an average $136,000 a year require extensive knowledge of animal biology, a high degree of manual dexterity for surgeries, and interpersonal skills to communicate with animal owners all skills that AI is yet adequately reproduce.

Medical and health services managers need judgment, management, and interpersonal skills, which doesn’t suit AI with the need constantly adapt to changing requirements also hard to automate.

AI also finds it hard to mimic the dexterity and interpersonal skills that physical therapists need.

Occupational therapists also have a high degree of personal interaction and need adaptability to each patient’s needs, things which render AI unsuitable. 

Similarly the level of personalised care, requiring high adaptability and emotional intelligence, limit the application of AI for speech therapy. 

Although AI can assist with diagnoses of hearing problems, the emotional and psychological support provided by audiologists is something still best suited to humans.

Vets are on the list as one of the jobs unlikely to be replaced by AI in the foreseeable future 

Epidemiologists use complex data analysis and interpretation to determine patterns and health outcomes, which AI can help with, but they also require judgment and ethical understanding that the machines lack.

Orthotists and prosthetists need to have a level of manual dexterity and clinical judgment beyond current AI capabilities. 

All 10 occupations are forecast to grow by at least 10 per cent in the coming decade and in the US they all fetch well over the median salary of US$71,000 ($A106,000).

It comes after administration/office support staff, retail workers and people employed in the food services industry were identified as those to be replaced as AI ramps up its takeover of the Australian workforce.

Research by workplace technology firm Service Now, found that 1.3million jobs will be automated in Australia over the next four years in a major shakeup to the workforce.
