Robots have been something of both fear and fascination for a long time. Shows like The Jetsons depicted what life might be like in the future when we could have flying cars and robot maids to simplify our lives. The truth is, we’re much closer to having a robot workforce than you may think and certain jobs are more likely than others to be taken over by robots.

SmartAsset put together research looking at how many jobs in each state are likely to be taken over by robots. The ranking took a look at how many total jobs are in each state, and how likely different professions are to be automated. Read on to find out which states have the most jobs likely to be taken over by robots. The No. 1 state is a popular tourist destination with far too many jobs easily automated.

54.44% of jobs are at risk

There are some industries that are more prone to automation than others and according to the Arkansas Economic Development Commission (AEDC), several of them are key industries in the state. The food and beverage is industry is one of them as Arkansas is home to Tyson Foods, which the AEDC notes is the third largest employer in the state, as well as several other food manufacturers. With that in mind, it should be no surprise that over 640,000 jobs are at risk of being automated in the state.

54.45% of jobs are at risk

While tourism, Hawaii’s largest industry according to the Department of Business, Economic Development & and Tourism, seems unlikely to be taken over by robots any time soon, there are several other large industries that have grown along with the tourism industry that could potentially be automated. Things like manufacturing and even the service industry are at least partially vulnerable to automation. The reality is that over 330,000 jobs are potentially at risk in Hawaii, which is considerable since it’s the eighth smallest U.S. state.

54.60% of jobs are at risk

There’s a lot more to Idaho than potatoes. According to Idaho’s commerce website, key industries in the state include aerospace, energy, and food production. The state’s aerospace industry is actually leading the push towards automation with an Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAC) program. The state’s commerce website estimates that the Autonomous Systems industry will grow in the next 15 years to an $89 billion industry. While Idaho appears to be embracing the idea of automation, the state is at risk of losing over 360,000 jobs to robots.

Oklahoma’s Department of Commerce lists five major industries as the “backbone” of the state’s economy on its website. Of those five, several are industries most likely to be taken over by robots such as aerospace, transportation, and even agriculture. In fact, over 840,000 jobs in the state are at risk of being automated. While it may seem like a stretch that industries like agriculture could be in danger of becoming automated, the truth is most developments in automation can be applied to multiple industries. So advancements in autonomous vehicles could very likely lead to autonomous farm equipment.

54.78% of jobs are at risk

Many of West Virginia’s key industries are ones that are susceptible to automation including fulfillment distribution, manufacturing, and aerospace. Companies like Amazon have already made significant strides in automated fulfillment facilities. In fact, CommonSense Robotics, an Israeli startup, launched its first automated fulfillment center in 2018. As more advancements in automation are made, more jobs will be at risk including over 370,000 in West Virginia.

55.01% of jobs are at risk

As the second-largest U.S. state, it makes sense that Texas would have proportionally more jobs at risk than any other state on this list. However, the actual amount is truly jaw-dropping. Texas has over 6.5 million jobs at risk of being taken over by robots. According to SmartAsset, the jobs most at risk are retail salespeople, fast food preparers, and office clerks. Texas is also a big manufacturing state, according to the Texas Economic Development website, and that’s one industry that’s very susceptible to automation.

There are also numerous jobs that are very low risk of being taken over by robots. SmartAsset notes that police offices and general managers are generally safe from being automated. That being said even law enforcement has a use for robots. Some agencies are employing robots to help patrol communities and it has also become more commonplace to use robots on bomb squads.

Agriculture is by far one of the largest industries in Montana and also fairly susceptible to being taken over by robots, but that’s not where it ends. SmartAsset reports that other occupations like retail cashiers and salespeople in the state have at least a 90% chance of being automated. While over 250,000 jobs in the state are at risk, all hope is not lost. Trades like electricians have a low risk of becoming automated.

55.90% of jobs are at risk

Of the over 1 million jobs at risk in Louisiana, approximately 70,000 of them are cashier positions, according to SmartAsset. This is not unlike many other states since cashier positions have a 97% chance of being automated in the future. If you think about it, self-checkout kiosks are not that uncommon anymore. And an increasing number of stores are installing them while simultaneously reducing the number of lanes available for real cashiers to man.
