Experts from the building automation software firm Linkee have identified 10 job roles that will become redundant in as many years.
Due to the unstoppable ascent of artificial intelligence, everything from marketing to writing, to video editing and designing faces a bleak future when it comes to the human workforce.
Per The Mirror, Linkee's survey took into consideration AI replacement risk, role growth projections, and public interest data to whittle down the careers most likely to be eviscerated by robotic minds.
So, which jobs are at the greatest risk of being automated by the year 2035?
Product Marketing Manager
With an official risk score of 43, and a 39% likeliness of automation, the first job in this doomy list is product marketing manager.

"The roles with lower risk scores aren’t just 'creative' or 'strategic'. They’re multidisciplinary," the survey claimed.
"For example, product marketing managers and marketing analysts work at the intersection of data, storytelling, and business goals, making them harder to replace."
Graphic designer
Next in the firing line are graphic designers, boating an AI replacement rate of 59%.

"In a world where output is commoditized, the edge belongs to those who expand beyond one role and turn AI into measurable outcomes," the study noted.
Marketing analyst
Running a worrying replacement risk rate of 48%, marketing analysts might be best advised to apply their skills in other industries.
"Product marketers and analysts score lower risk not because they’re untouched by AI, but because they operate at the intersection of multiple careers. The advantage isn’t in how fast you can generate, but in how far you can expand," said Vahan Poghosyan, CEO of Linkee.
SEO specialist
SEO specialist is another pretty replaceable job it seems, with the androids well positioned to steal their seats at the office.

“The roles that last aren’t the ones producing more. They’re the ones deciding what matters," Poghosyan commented.
BTL marketing specialist
Below-the-line marketing specialists only have a role growth rate of 4.9, as the Linkee experts argued that 'to stay competitive, marketers must pair core skills with a secondary discipline, build genuine AI fluency, move upstream into problem selection and positioning, and demonstrate real impact with revenue-linked metrics'.
Video content editor
Could Hollywood trailers or corporate promotional materials be artificially created?
Advert
We only ask because the AI replacement risk rate for video content editors arrived at a whopping 65%.
Radio promotions manager
It looks like radio promotions managers have had their time in the sun long enough.

Despite being central roles, the Linkee study found they're in the minus percentage of growth rate.
Advertising sales agent
Advertising Sales Agents sell off advertising space to a variety media platforms, but they're in danger of becoming irrelevant.
"Ad sales are already showing –6.6% growth. The market is telling us that repeatable work is no longer scarce," explained Poghosyan.
Customer experience specialist
The second-most likely profession to be blasted out of existence is the Customer Experience Specialist.
Advert
Workers ensure that customers have good interactions with companies by matching their needs and expectations to each other, yet the sad reality is that cost-saving is now on the up.
Copywriter
Copywriters are officially facing the bleakest future. This job received an AI replacement risk score of 85 percent.
"As the cost of words, edits, and standard campaign operations trends toward zero, any role built purely on output is under pressure. That’s why copywriting carries an 85% replacement risk in our model," Poghosyan said.
