Insurance Agent
More exposed than 71% of the roles we track. Median pay ~US$57,000.
Pay & demand figures are US medians (in USD; curated approximation (not refreshed from BLS; 2022–32 framing)) - your local figures will differ. Your exposure score applies broadly.
Will AI replace Insurance Agent?
No exposure score can predict whether AI will replace this role. The 62/100 score means our current model estimates elevated task exposure from the sources listed on this page. It does not predict an employer decision, headcount, or an individual outcome. The task map below shows the work assessed and where human judgment remains important.
Early-career context (study ages 22-25)
This role is in the Elevated exposure band, but its assessed task mix is not automation-heavy. The study found the decline concentrated where AI was more likely to automate rather than augment work, so the headline figure should not be applied directly.
The November 2025 revision reports a 16% relative employment decline for workers ages 22-25 in the most AI-exposed U.S. occupations, after firm-level controls, relative to workers in less-exposed fields and more experienced workers in the same occupations.
Use the task map to identify durable work and the skills worth building early.
