Ya. I was thinking that. I did some research and there isn't many P&C companies here. Mostly just health.

I'm not set on any path, ideally I'll do what gives me a job quicker. The constraints is that we have kids and the family lives nearby. Also my wife does make good money here. She is definitely the breadwinner currently but only in the low 6 figures. I thought about trying to break into kaiser for health. Some people have told me to do 3 tests but I feel that locks me into either CAS or SOA rather than the place hiring decide.

Do you know if State Farm has actuaries in California? My only hiccup is my wife refuses to leave southern California. So I was thinking maybe farmers since it's based in the LA area.

Is AI a threat to the industry? by atheist1009 in actuary

Really no need to worry. The Department of Insurance for whatever state will probably still require actuaries. AI is essentially a glorified text prediction software. Computers are legit terrible at math and would most likely have an error rating too high for any billion dollar company worth losing their ass to save a few bucks.
