Task-by-Task Breakdown

Every task scored individually — sorted highest to lowest AI exposure

67

organises training for users and prepares documentation on IT systems

AI Assists

AI tools like ChatGPT and Notion AI can rapidly draft technical documentation, create training materials, and generate FAQs, significantly reducing writing time, though human review for accuracy and context is still essential.

56

manages and develops the content and operation of websites, monitors traffic, and ensures the functionality of websites and web servers

AI Assists

AI-powered tools like Google Analytics with AI insights, Semrush, and CMS platforms with AI plugins can automate traffic analysis, flag performance issues, and suggest content improvements, but strategic decisions and custom fixes still need human input.

44

provides support to organisations in the operation of their IT software, hardware and networks

AI Assists

AI tools like GitHub Copilot and Microsoft Copilot can diagnose common IT issues, suggest fixes, and automate ticket triage, but complex troubleshooting across unique organisational environments still requires human judgment.

44

meets with clients to determine their requirements and designs, tests and installs new systems to meet client's needs

AI Assists

AI can assist with requirements gathering templates, generate system design suggestions, and auto-generate test cases (e.g. via Copilot or Testim), but understanding nuanced client needs and making architectural decisions remains human-led.

The portion of your current salary tied to tasks AI can automate or augment. Not a prediction of job loss — a signal of where your role is changing fastest.

How is this calculated?▾

Task weights — each task is weighted by its O*NET frequency rating. Where frequency data is absent, equal weighting is applied.

AI time reduction — tasks scored as "AI Automates" assume 80% time saving; "AI Assists" assumes 40%; "Human-Led" assumes 5%.

Salary equivalent — annual hours saved × (salary ÷ 1,800 working hours/year).

Value at risk — salary × share of role time in AI-automate or AI-assist tasks.

Figures are indicative estimates for planning purposes, not guarantees of productivity gain or job loss risk.
