Miner: will AI take this job?

30%Mostly safe
Autonomous trucks already drive in some mines. Down there, it’s still you and the rock.

Why

Mining automation is growing, and coal jobs are shrinking for energy reasons, not AI.

Where to look next

  1. Mining equipment operator (remote)
  2. Energy transition: geothermal, critical minerals
  3. Mine rescue / safety

What AI already does

  • Haulage
  • Monitoring gas and safety

What stays human

  • Work at the face
  • Emergencies

Skills worth learning — Industry & agriculture

  • Robots and automation
  • Maintenance
  • Precision technology

For fun, not a forecast. Scores are our rough estimates of how much of a job’s tasks AI can already help with, based on the ILO (2025) and Microsoft Research (2025) studies. Exposure usually means the job changes, not that it disappears — the ILO puts about 1 in 4 jobs worldwide in exposed occupations, but only 3.3% in the highest category.
