Task-by-Task Breakdown
Every task scored individually — sorted highest to lowest AI exposure

advises employers, local and national government and other organisations on aspects of law and legislative implications of decisions made
AI can rapidly scan legislation and flag regulatory changes using tools like Westlaw Edge or Lexis+ AI, but interpreting strategic implications for specific organisations still requires human judgment.

AI tools like ChatGPT or Harvey AI can help identify relevant legal provisions and draft initial advice, but nuanced client circumstances and emotional support require human engagement.

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.
