of this role’s work is already showing up in real Claude usage (Anthropic Economic Index).
Certified irreplaceable. For now, gloriously human.
3% 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
- Order new parts to maintain inventory
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Install or replace machinery, equipment, and new or replacement parts and instruments, using hand or power tools
- Examine and test machinery, equipment, components, and parts for defects to ensure proper functioning
- Tend and observe equipment and machinery to verify efficient and safe operation
- Adjust, connect, or disconnect wiring, piping, tubing, and other parts, using hand or power tools
- Clean or lubricate vehicles, machinery, equipment, instruments, tools, work areas, and other objects, using hand tools, power tools, and cleaning equipment
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 3% cooked. What’s yours?"
