Half in the fire, half out. Choose which half you become.
45% 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. In the blast radius. A real slice of the work is already automatable. The rest isn’t.
WHAT AI CAN ALREADY DO
- Maintain patient records at all stages, including initial and subsequent evaluation and treatment activities
- Perform administrative tasks, such as managing office functions and finances
- Provide information to the public on hearing or balance topics
- Evaluate hearing and balance disorders to determine diagnoses and courses of treatment
- Counsel and instruct patients and their families in techniques to improve hearing and communication related to hearing loss
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Fit, dispense, and repair assistive devices, such as hearing aids
- Administer hearing tests and examine patients to collect information on type and degree of impairment, using specialized instruments and electronic equipment
- Examine and clean patients' ear canals
- Educate and supervise audiology students and health care personnel
- Instruct patients, parents, teachers, or employers in communication strategies to maximize effective receptive communication
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.
