Half in the fire, half out. Choose which half you become.
47% 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
- Write pathology reports summarizing analyses, results, and conclusions
- Communicate pathologic findings to surgeons or other physicians
- Identify the etiology, pathogenesis, morphological change, and clinical significance of diseases
- Read current literature, talk with colleagues, or participate in professional organizations or conferences to keep abreast of developments in pathology
- Consult with physicians about ordering and interpreting tests or providing treatments
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Perform autopsies to determine causes of deaths
- Obtain specimens by performing procedures, such as biopsies or fine needle aspirations (FNAs) of superficial nodules
- Testify in depositions or trials as an expert witness
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 47% cooked. What’s yours?"
