OBSERVED IN REAL USE · Anthropic 2026
n/a
Not yet measured in the Anthropic Economic Index. The exposure figure is a capability estimate only.
Mostly fireproof. AI hands you the paperwork and steps back.
25% 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. Mostly safe. AI helps around the edges, but the job stays human.
WHAT AI CAN ALREADY DO
- Control the inventory or distribution of classroom equipment, materials, or supplies
- Maintain accurate and complete student records as required by laws, district policies, or administrative regulations
- Prepare assignments for teacher assistants or volunteers
- Collaborate with other teachers or administrators to develop, evaluate, or revise kindergarten programs
- Confer with parents, administrators, testing specialists, social workers, or other professionals to develop individual educational plans (IEPs) for students' educational, physical, or social development
WHAT IT STILL CAN’T
- Attend professional meetings, educational conferences, or teacher training workshops to maintain or improve professional competence
- Confer with parents, guardians, teachers, counselors, or administrators to resolve students' behavioral or academic problems
- Employ special educational strategies or techniques during instruction to improve the development of sensory- and perceptual-motor skills, language, cognition, or memory
- Establish and enforce rules for behavior and procedures for maintaining order among students
- Instruct and monitor students in the use and care of equipment or materials to prevent injuries and damage
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.
