Microbiologists
Microbiologists have a high exposure to AI because a significant portion of their work involves data analysis, pattern recognition in genetic sequences, and technical reporting—all areas where AI is rapidly advancing. However, the physical requirement to conduct laboratory experiments, maintain biological cultures, and collect field samples provides a substantial buffer against full automation.
