AI exposure explained

What does an AI score of 5.5/10 mean?

Interpretation

Moderate exposure: parts of this work can be assisted by AI. The role will evolve but not disappear.

For Infirmiers, AI exposure is moderate: some tasks will be assisted or automated, but the occupation as a whole is expected to evolve rather than disappear. Staying current with AI tools in the field is the key adaptation.


Forecast 2030

What changes for Infirmiers?

Expected employment change, 2025 to 2030

Rows add up: the bottom row is the forecast.

The forecast starts from the national projection per occupational family and adds AI and robotics as separate layers. The band of 0% to +10% matters more than the midpoint.

Les métiers en 2030 was made on a 2019 base, before generative AI, and differentiates growth per FAP 87 family (FAP 2009); several occupations share a family or are broad proxies. The AI and robotics layers refine per occupation. Salaries are net, not gross.

About this analysis

AI scores are LLM-estimated using the same methodology as the Dutch AI Exposure Map, making scores directly comparable across countries. Employment 2024, growth 2021-2024, part-time and female share from DARES, Portraits statistiques des métiers (FAP 2021, all workers including self-employed and civil servants); salaries are the DARES net median 2023-2025 for employees, not gross. Occupations are mapped to one or more FAP 2021 families; some are broad proxies or share a family. The 2030 forecast (JPE-prognose v3) starts from Les métiers en 2030 (France Stratégie and DARES, 2019 base) and adds separate AI and robotics layers. These are modelled scenarios, not predictions. A high AI score does not automatically mean job loss. DARES data under Licence Ouverte 2.0; our dataset CC BY 4.0.
