Future of Work

AI and Jobs

Where generative AI lifts wages, where it displaces them, and the new occupations forming in its wake.

SalaryScope tracks AI's wage and demand effects across more than 800 occupations. We score AI augmentation, AI exposure, AI displacement risk, and the AI wage premium for each role.

Augmentation

Roles where AI multiplies output — software engineering, design, research, marketing, sales operations.

Displacement

Roles where AI substitutes for routine cognitive work — basic copywriting, tier-1 support, routine data entry.

Role formation

Entirely new occupations forming around AI — evals, prompt engineering, AI product management, model safety.

Wage premium

How much more workers with AI-native skills earn — currently 9–18% across knowledge work.
