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.
43% 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
- Document or evaluate patients' medical histories
- Develop or implement plans and procedures for ophthalmologic services
- Develop treatment plans based on patients' histories and goals, the nature and severity of disorders, and treatment risks and benefits
- Educate patients about maintenance and promotion of healthy vision
- Perform, order, or interpret the results of diagnostic or clinical tests
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Provide or direct the provision of postoperative care
- Perform ophthalmic surgeries such as cataract, glaucoma, refractive, corneal, vitro-retinal, eye muscle, or oculoplastic surgeries
- Perform laser surgeries to alter, remove, reshape, or replace ocular tissue
- Instruct interns, residents, or others in ophthalmologic procedures and techniques
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.
