Will AI replace your job? See which city in Georgia is the most concerned in the US
Will AI take my job? As artificial intelligence continues to reshape the workplace, a growing number of Americans are turning to Google with this pressing question. A new report from TRADESAFE suggests the concern is especially strong in Georgia's capital. While Georgia ranks 32nd nationally in AI-related job anxiety per capita, Atlanta tops the list of all U.S. cities most concerned about AI job loss, according to a new analysis by the safety equipment company. The study combines survey results from over 1,000 Americans with more than a year's worth of Google search data, revealing shifting attitudes about employment, automation, and career planning. Between January 2024 and March 2025, researchers tracked 122 AI-related search terms, including phrases like "Will AI take my job?", "careers safe from automation", and "jobs AI can't replace." These were analyzed across all 50 states and the 50 most populous U.S. cities. When adjusted for population size, Atlanta ranked #1 in the country for per capita searches related to AI job anxiety. Other cities high on the list include Minneapolis, Miami, Tampa, and Seattle. TRADESAFE only included search terms that showed a consistent upward trend over time, aiming to spotlight areas where public concern is growing, not just spiking temporarily. Atlanta also ranked No. 2 in the nation for searches related to blue-collar job interest per capita, signaling that some workers may be considering a shift toward roles that are perceived as less vulnerable to automation. 'Blue-collar' refers broadly to hands-on, skilled trades and manual labor roles, like: Construction Manufacturing HVAC Mechanics Electricians Truck driving Many of these jobs, while not immune to automation, are seen as harder to fully replace with AI in the near future due to their physical or on-site requirements. Other cities showing high interest in blue-collar careers include Minneapolis (which topped the list), Seattle, Denver, and Portland.
