    831 detailed occupations in the BLS Employment Projections table. Assigned per National Employment Matrix (NEM) code, so occupations sharing a NEM code carry the same band

    Source dataset

What kind of figure this source publishes

The BLS category is a relative rank, not an absolute level, and it is not a first-hand measurement: it groups an occupation's percentile ranks across several published studies into four bands. It is not an employment or wage forecast, not a probability of adoption, and it does not separate automation from augmentation.

Task-level exposure

Values in this tab are predicted labels, not observations. Eloundou et al. (2023) published two rating regimes — human raters and GPT-4 — and the β shown here is derived from the GPT-4 rater basis alone; the same task can take a different value under the other regime. The unit and the meaning differ from the observed shares (%) in the other tabs, so do not place them on the same axis.

Occupation information

Recent Changes Affecting This Occupation

Jun 2026: Cited by ADP Research as an example of a high-AI-exposure occupation. Group-level payroll data shows employment in high-exposure occupations down 0.2% year over year overall and down 4.3% for workers aged 22-25 (33rd consecutive monthly decline). The percentages are for the high-exposure group, not for this occupation alone.

May 2026: Anthropic observed-exposure score: high (zero->observed gap small). High observed exposure due to simpler software pipelines and lower integration cost.

Apr 2026: NBER survey of 6,000 executives: 69% use AI but 90% report zero employment impact. Executives predict -0.7% employment decline over next 3 years.
