Robots can’t hold a hand, a scalpel, or your nerve.
2% 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
- Requisition materials, using warehouse requisition or release forms
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Measure, cut, and bend wire and conduit, using measuring instruments and hand tools
- Trace out short circuits in wiring, using test meter
- Strip insulation from wire ends, using wire stripping pliers, and attach wires to terminals for subsequent soldering
- Examine electrical units for loose connections and broken insulation and tighten connections, using hand tools
- Construct controllers and panels, using power drills, drill presses, taps, saws, and punches
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.
