Nursing assistants don’t register in AI usage at all. Helping patients wash, eat, move and stay comfortable is physical, personal work. AI may reach the edges through charting and scheduling, but the role itself is among the most insulated in the Index. The bigger challenges for this job are pay and staffing, not technology.

How to read this: AI task coverage comes from the Anthropic Economic Index, which measures how people use Claude, not the whole labour market. Job postings data comes from Indeed Hiring Lab and reflects the wording of job ads, not actual AI use at work. Employment and pay are US figures unless stated. AI use is not the same as job loss; our verdict explains what we think it means.
