Your role’s AI Resilience Score is
Median Score
Meaningful human contribution
Measures the parts of the occupation that still require a human touch. This score averages data from up to four AI exposure datasets, focusing on the role’s resilience against automation.
High
Long-term employer demand
Predicts the health of the job market for this role through 2034. Using Bureau of Labor Statistics data, it balances projected annual job openings (60%) with overall employment growth (40%).
Med
Sustained economic opportunity
Measures future earning potential and career flexibility. This score is a blend of total projected labor income (67%) and the role’s inherent ability to adapt to economic and technological shifts (33%).
High
This reflects the reliability of your score based on the number of data sources available for this career and how closely those sources agree on the outlook. A higher confidence means more consistent evidence from labor experts and AI models.
Most data sources align, with only minor variation. This is a well-supported result.
Contributing sources
Nurse Midwives are more resilient to AI impacts than most occupations, according to our analysis of 7 sources.
The career of a nurse-midwife is labeled as "Resilient" because it relies heavily on skills that only humans can provide, like empathy, communication, and hands-on care during childbirth. While AI can assist by handling routine tasks like documentation and suggesting care plans, it cannot replace the personal connection and judgment that midwives offer to patients.

Nurse Midwives
Updated Quarterly • Last Update: 2/17/2026

Nurse-midwives still spend a lot of time on documentation, and AI is already helping here. For example, “AI scribes” use speech recognition to write notes and fill medical charts while the nurse talks to the patient [1] [1]. Studies show these tools can cut paperwork time so midwives can focus more on patients [1] [1].
AI also helps with diagnostics: algorithms can scan ultrasound or lab data and flag issues – such as possible fetal complications – that people might miss [1] [1].
But most midwife work still needs human skills. Explaining procedures and reassuring patients rely on empathy and trust, which AI can’t provide. Delivering babies and hands-on care are fully human.
Even planning education or doing clinical research needs judgment. Some students use AI tools (like ChatGPT) to review studies or draft patient guides; they find these tools save time but say they must check the answers carefully [1]. Today, AI only augments midwives: it handles routine tasks (charts, simple analysis) so midwives can spend time on real patient care.

Overall, AI tools are arriving slowly in midwifery. Some software to automate notes or suggest care plans is available, but hospitals must buy it and train staff, which costs money and time [1]. Many midwives are cautious about new AI.
In surveys they welcome help but worry about losing the personal touch, errors, or bias [1] [1]. Patient privacy and safety rules (like HIPAA) also mean any AI system needs careful testing. Because midwives deal with mothers and babies directly, people insist on proven benefits and safety.
In short, AI will probably help more over time (saving work and catching risks), but adoption is measured. Human judgment, communication, and care remain at the center of a midwife’s job [1] [1]. The technology’s role is to assist, not replace, and it will be used more as trust and evidence build.
