How AI Exposure Levels Work
AI-Resistant (Low)
These roles rely on hands-on work, human judgment, or in-person interaction that today's AI can't easily replace.
AI-Augmented (Medium)
AI will handle parts of the day-to-day work, making these roles faster and more productive β but people stay essential.
AI-Vulnerable (High)
Many core tasks here can already be automated. These roles may shrink or change significantly over the next decade.
Exposure levels estimate how much of a role's typical tasks current AI can perform. They're a guide, not a guarantee β how AI affects any job depends on the person, the employer, and how the role evolves.
