Which states will AI affect most? Puerto Rico, Delaware and Georgia have the most of the average workday touched by AI or robots. Alaska and Maine have the least. The whole range is only 24 minutes, because every state has a broad mix of jobs. Each job has the same time card everywhere, so the ranking reflects which jobs are common in each state. In every state, most of the average shift still goes to tasks with no documented AI or robot use.
