of this role’s work is already showing up in real Claude usage (Anthropic Economic Index).
Certified irreplaceable. For now, gloriously human.
17% of this role’s O*NET tasks are within reach of today’s AI. That is the core-weighted exposure score from Eloundou et al. 2023 (“GPTs are GPTs”). It measures a capability ceiling, not a headcount forecast. Certified hard to automate. Today’s AI barely touches the core of this one.
WHAT AI CAN ALREADY DO
- Record animal characteristics such as weights, growth patterns, and diets
- Maintain logs of semen specimens used and animals bred
- Select animals to be bred, and semen specimens to be used, according to knowledge of animals, genealogies, traits, and desired offspring characteristics
- Examine animals to detect symptoms of illness or injury
- Arrange for sale of animals and eggs to hospitals, research centers, pet shops, and food processing plants
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Feed and water animals, and clean and disinfect pens, cages, yards, and hutches
- Observe animals in heat to detect approach of estrus and exercise animals to induce or hasten estrus, if necessary
- Treat minor injuries and ailments and contact veterinarians to obtain treatment for animals with serious illnesses or injuries
- Purchase and stock supplies of feed and medicines
- Build hutches, pens, and fenced yards
THE HONEST PART. A percentage is not a pink slip. High exposure usually means a role shrinks and shifts toward judgment, direction and responsibility: the parts a model can’t sign its name to. Exposure ≠ displacement. Breathe.
