    How the score works

    Three signals are blended: baseline role exposure (from OpenAI/UPenn GPT paper + Goldman Sachs AI report), your task mix (repetitive tasks carry the highest weight), and AI fluency โ€” using AI yourself shifts you from "replaced" to "augmented".

    Directional thinking aid. Real disruption depends on your company, location, and how fast you adapt.

    Will AI Replace Your Job?

    The honest answer: AI won't replace your job โ€” someone using AI will. Studies from Goldman Sachs, OpenAI/UPenn, and McKinsey consistently show that AI displaces tasks, not whole jobs. Roles that are 80%+ repetitive get hit hardest; roles built on judgment, empathy, or physical presence change the slowest.

    This calculator gives you a directional read โ€” and more importantly, points you toward the kind of work that compounds in value as AI gets cheaper.

    ๐Ÿ”

    Repetitive = First

    Anything rule-based, structured, or templated is automatable. Form-filling, data entry, basic copywriting, and routine code โ€” these shrink first.

    ๐Ÿ’ก

    Judgment = Safer

    Strategy, taste, context, and decisions under ambiguity remain hard for AI. Direction-setters outlast doers.

    ๐Ÿค

    Trust = Moat

    Therapy, leadership, sales, teaching โ€” work that requires another human to trust you isn't going anywhere fast.

    ๐Ÿ› 

    Hands โ‰  Hardware

    Trades, surgery, field engineering โ€” robots are decades behind LLMs. Physical jobs are the most underpriced safe haven right now.

    FAQ

    Frequently Asked Questions

    How is the risk score calculated?
    Blends a baseline role exposure (published AI research), your task mix (repetitive 95% risk weight, creative 25%, human 10%, physical 5%), and AI fluency (each tool you use cuts ~5% risk, capped at 28%).
    Will my entire job disappear?
    Almost never. AI displaces tasks, not whole jobs. High scores mean your role will be re-shaped or shrunk โ€” not deleted overnight.
    What's the safest career to switch into?
    Consistently safe: skilled trades, healthcare, therapy/coaching, executive/strategy, and roles that direct AI rather than do what AI does.
    Is it too late to start using AI tools?
    No โ€” most professionals are still in the early-adopter window. The ROI of integrating one AI tool is enormous: it lowers your risk score AND makes you 30โ€“60% more productive at the same job.
