Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (AI) is regarded as one of the most disruptive technologies for the coming decades. It is expected to transform the nature of existing jobs and have a huge impact on the future of work. Unlike previous technologies, AI can be applied to highly educated and well-paid jobs in various industries, including healthcare, finance, and manufacturing. This research will apply natural language processing to assess the exposure of health information workforce competencies to AI. The overlap between the texts of titles and abstracts of AI patents with verb-noun pairs from the health information workforce competency models will be quantified using natural language processing. The results of this study will provide empirical evidence on which health information workforce competencies can and cannot be replaced by AI. Moreover, by identifying vulnerable competency areas, this study will provide critical insights for health information industry leaders, educators, and policymakers to anticipate which skills may become obsolete or less relevant, thereby guiding strategic adjustments in workforce development and training.
