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.

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
  • "Consult with writers, producers, or actors about script changes or ""workshop"" scripts, through rehearsal with writers and actors to create final drafts."
  • Compile scripts, program notes, and other material related to productions
  • Write and submit proposals to bid on contracts for projects
  • Compose and edit scripts or provide screenwriters with story outlines from which scripts can be written
  • Write and edit news stories from information collected by reporters and other sources
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
  • Communicate to actors the approach, characterization, and movement needed for each scene in such a way that rehearsals and takes are minimized
  • Direct live broadcasts, films and recordings, or non-broadcast programming for public entertainment or education
  • Supervise and coordinate the work of camera, lighting, design, and sound crew members
  • Conduct meetings with staff to discuss production progress and to ensure production objectives are attained
  • Resolve personnel problems that arise during the production process by acting as liaisons between dissenting parties when necessary
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.
