United States workplaces see accelerating AI job displacement
Tap title to read story
Artificial intelligence is displacing thousands of jobs across the United States as businesses integrate automated tools into everyday operations. Over roughly the past two years, AI systems have quietly taken over routine and predictable tasks in sectors such as marketing, technology, translation, administration, and management. Senior Microsoft engineer Nandita Giri told The Epoch Times that roles in data entry, customer support, transcription, logistics, and some junior software testing positions are particularly vulnerable. She also noted that back-office functions in health care, finance, and legal services face high risk as companies use AI for task triage, scheduling, and summarization to reduce coordination overhead.
