Employment

Finance Minister Michael McGrath explained that 63% of employment in Ireland is exposed to AI.

Women, those in urban areas and those in administrative jobs are most at risk of artificial intelligence negatively impacting their employment. Sports players, fire service officers and chefs, however, can rest assured that their jobs are more safe.

He continued: “From a gender perspective, women are relatively more exposed to AI than men, with 76% of women working in high exposure roles compared to a 51% for men. This stems from the fact that more women are employed in relatively high-exposure administrative, customer service or healthcare occupations.“The analysis also indicates that people working in urban regions are relatively more exposed to AI compared to those in rural regions.

High exposure and strong complementarity included medical practitioners, barristers and judges, librarians and psychologists. Jobs that had low AI exposure included sports played, fire service officers, chefs, plasterers, waiters and waitresses, launderers, dry cleaners and pressers and sewing machinists.
