of this role’s work is already showing up in real Claude usage (Anthropic Economic Index).
Half in the fire, half out. Choose which half you become.
49% 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
- Plan and prepare work schedules and keep records of employees' work schedules and time cards
- Establish credit policies and operating procedures
- Provide customer service by greeting and assisting customers and responding to customer inquiries and complaints
- Examine merchandise to ensure that it is correctly priced and displayed and that it functions as advertised
- Monitor sales activities to ensure that customers receive satisfactory service and quality goods
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Perform work activities of subordinates, such as cleaning and organizing shelves and displays and selling merchandise
- Enforce safety, health, and security rules
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.
