Most exposed

Where AI can do more

Routine, digitized, and highly repeatable tasks face the greatest pressure.

  1. Develop teaching aids, such as instructional software, multimedia visual aids, or study materials.76
  2. Provide individualized instruction and tutorial or remedial instruction.75
  3. Review enrollment applications and correspond with applicants to obtain additional information.75
  4. Administer oral, written, or performance tests to measure progress and to evaluate training effectiveness.74
Hardest to automate

Where people still matter

These tasks score lowest on automation feasibility—physical presence, judgement, accountability and real-world variability all resist end-to-end automation.

Beyond AI capability

Adoption and labour-market outlook

Structural factors are kept separate from raw capability so you can see what actually resists automation. Adoption pressure and labour-market resilience are still provisional models—25% of this occupation’s replacement-risk weight rests on them.
