You might want to sit down for this one.
65% 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. Deeply cooked. Almost the entire task list is something a model can already attempt.
WHAT AI CAN ALREADY DO
- Read copy or proof to detect and correct errors in spelling, punctuation, and syntax
- Read, evaluate and edit manuscripts or other materials submitted for publication, and confer with authors regarding changes in content, style or organization, or publication
- Develop story or content ideas, considering reader or audience appeal
- Prepare, rewrite and edit copy to improve readability, or supervise others who do this work
- Write text, such as stories, articles, editorials, or newsletters
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Meet frequently with artists, typesetters, layout personnel, marketing directors, and production managers to discuss projects and resolve problems
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.
"My job is 65% cooked. What’s yours?"
