of this role’s work is already showing up in real Claude usage (Anthropic Economic Index).
A co-pilot is coming for the busywork, not the wheel.
42% 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
- Write articles, manuals, and other publications, and assist in the distribution of promotional literature about facilities and programs
- Evaluate curricula, teaching methods, and programs to determine their effectiveness, efficiency, and use, and to ensure compliance with federal, state, and local regulations
- Observe teaching methods and examine learning materials to evaluate and standardize curricula and teaching techniques and to determine areas for improvement
- Collaborate with teachers to develop and maintain curriculum standards, develop mission statements, and set performance goals and objectives
- Create school improvement plans, using student performance data
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Counsel and provide guidance to students regarding personal, academic, vocational, or behavioral issues
- Confer with parents and staff to discuss educational activities, policies, and student behavior or learning problems
- Enforce discipline and attendance rules
- Organize and direct committees of specialists, volunteers, and staff to provide technical and advisory assistance for programs
- Mentor and support administrative staff members, such as superintendents and principals
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.
