OBSERVED IN REAL USE · Anthropic 2026
25%
of this role’s work is already showing up in real Claude usage (Anthropic Economic Index).
Well done. And by that we mean: cooked.
89% 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. Deeply cooked. Almost the entire task list is something a model can already attempt.
WHAT AI CAN ALREADY DO
- Write fiction or nonfiction prose, such as short stories, novels, biographies, articles, descriptive or critical analyses, and essays
- Develop factors such as themes, plots, characterizations, psychological analyses, historical environments, action, and dialogue to create material
- Prepare works in appropriate format for publication, and send them to publishers or producers
- Revise written material to meet personal standards and to satisfy needs of clients, publishers, directors, or producers
- Confer with clients, editors, publishers, or producers to discuss changes or revisions to written material
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Attend book launches and publicity events, or conduct public readings
- Teach writing classes
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 89% cooked. What’s yours?"
