The shift toward AI-driven workplaces is accelerating, and new data from Indeed shows which industries are likely to feel the transformation first.
The job search platform highlights five job categories that it thinks are most likely to face disruption amid the widespread adoption of AI tools.
The firm names software development, data and analytics, accounting, marketing, and insurance as these roles rely heavily on repetitive or digital workflows that AI systems can already perform or augment.
Indeed economist Allison Shrivastava says the pattern isn’t about replacement but reconfiguration. Many of these positions involve limited in-person interaction and large volumes of structured data, making them prime for hybrid automation.
“These are going to be jobs where there’s not a lot of in-person interaction and a lot of more repetitive tasks. The reason why insurance is a big one is because it’s a lot of filing, filling out forms, a lot of that more in-office work.”
Shrivastava estimates that nearly half of all positions now have some degree of AI integration.
“There is quite a big variation across sectors, but, you know, about 46% of jobs have some kind of hybrid integration.”
Indeed’s research also points to an uneven impact between senior and junior roles. Entry-level positions are contracting in line with the overall cooling labor market, while senior titles remain steady.
“It’s really hard to disentangle because we have a cooling labor market. Really being able to say this is because of AI and this is because of labor market cooling, that’s going to be incredibly difficult. But where we’re really seeing right now is that it’s more of an overall labor-market cooling.”
For professionals in marketing, data, or coding, the takeaway isn’t panic but adaptation.
“AI is certainly going to impact your job, a lot of the skills within your job, but not necessarily take your job as a whole. Trying to figure out what sets of skills within your job can be outsourced… can kind of help you navigate that fear around AI in the job market.”
