of this role’s work is already showing up in real Claude usage (Anthropic Economic Index).
The last desk the machine reaches. Breathe.

11% 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. Certified hard to automate. Today’s AI barely touches the core of this one.

WHAT AI CAN ALREADY DO
  • Complete reports related to project status, progress, or other work details, using computer software
  • Take site survey photos or photos of work performed, using digital cameras
  • Read work orders, blueprints, plans, datasheets or site drawings to determine work to be done
  • Locate tower sites where work is to be performed, using mapping software
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
  • Inspect completed work to ensure all hardware is tight, antennas are level, hangers are properly fastened, proper support is in place, or adequate weather proofing has been installed
  • Run appropriate power, ground, or coaxial cables
  • Test operation of tower transmission components, using sweep testing tools or software
  • Install all necessary transmission equipment components, including antennas or antenna mounts, surge arrestors, transmission lines, connectors, or tower-mounted amplifiers (TMAs)
  • Replace existing antennas with new antennas as directed
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.
