EXPOSURE TO AI
45%

OBSERVED IN REAL USE · Anthropic 2026
n/a
Not yet measured in the Anthropic Economic Index. The exposure figure is a capability estimate only.
A co-pilot is coming for the busywork, not the wheel.
45% 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
- Calculate, or verify calculations of, prescribed radiation doses
- Record patient information, such as radiation doses administered, in patient records
- Perform quality assurance system checks, such as calibrations, on treatment planning computers
- Calculate the delivery of radiation treatment, such as the amount or extent of radiation per session, based on the prescribed course of radiation therapy
- Conduct radiation oncology-related research, such as improving computer treatment planning systems or developing new treatment devices
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Fabricate beam modifying devices, such as compensators, shields, and wedge filters
- Fabricate patient immobilization devices, such as molds or casts, for radiation delivery
- Load, receive, or ship radioactive materials
- Measure the amount of radioactivity in patients or equipment, using radiation monitoring devices
- Teach medical dosimetry, including its application, to students, radiation therapists, or residents
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.
