Most exposed

Where AI can do more

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

  1. Position, align, or adjust workpieces or electrical parts to facilitate wiring or assembly.80
  2. Mark and tag components so that stock inventory can be tracked and identified.80
  3. Distribute materials, supplies, or subassemblies to work areas.80
  4. Complete, review, or maintain production, time, or component waste reports.80
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.
