OBSERVED IN REAL USE · Anthropic 2026
1%
of this role’s work is already showing up in real Claude usage (Anthropic Economic Index).
Still standing — but the ground is warm.
51% 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. Heavily exposed. Most of the tasks are within reach of today’s AI.
WHAT AI CAN ALREADY DO
- Review and update standard operating procedures or quality assurance manuals
- Document testing procedures, methodologies, or criteria
- Monitor performance of quality control systems to ensure effectiveness and efficiency
- Review quality documentation necessary for regulatory submissions and inspections
- Analyze quality control test results and provide feedback and interpretation to production management or staff
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Stop production if serious product defects are present
- Audit and inspect subcontractor facilities including external laboratories
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 51% cooked. What’s yours?"
