How is automation risk calculated?

Our calculator uses data from O*NET and research on AI capabilities to assess which job tasks can be automated. Jobs with more routine, predictable tasks score higher risk, while jobs requiring creativity, social intelligence, or complex problem-solving score lower.

What does a high automation risk score mean?

A high score (70%+) indicates that many of your job's core tasks could be automated in the next 10-20 years. This doesn't mean immediate job loss, but suggests you should start developing skills that are harder to automate.

Which jobs are safest from automation?

Jobs requiring complex human interaction (therapists, nurses), creative problem-solving (researchers, artists), unpredictable physical environments (plumbers, emergency responders), or high-stakes decision-making (surgeons, judges) tend to be safer.

How can I reduce my automation risk?

Focus on developing uniquely human skills: emotional intelligence, creative thinking, complex communication, and strategic decision-making. Also consider transitioning to roles that manage or work alongside AI rather than compete with it.
