What this means

AI can do most of this work faster, but a real part of the job still needs a person. Real use is still behind at 0 out of 100, so the change here is only getting started. The people who learn which tasks to hand off will pull ahead.

What to do next

  • Get ahead on the 5 tasks AI could do next. These move as tools improve, so learning them early pays off.
  • Build on the 3 tasks that stay human. This is where your judgment, skill and relationships matter most.
