Automation exposure
How much of the work AI can already do
More exposed than 9% of the occupations in the index.
Averaged across 30 O*NET tasks, weighted by importance.
AI assistance potential
How much AI tools make the worker more capable
AI tools offer meaningful productivity gains for several key aspects of a legislator's role, particularly in rapidly summarizing lengthy and complex legislation, synthesizing constituent sentiment from thousands of messages, researching legal precedents, and drafting policy briefs or speeches. However, the core responsibilities of the position—such as political negotiation, building trust with colleagues, exercising political judgment, debating on the chamber floor, and casting votes—remain fundamentally human activities that cannot be augmented directly by AI.
What the work involves and who it suits, beyond AI.
What the two scores mean
Automation exposure is how much of the work current AI can already perform. A high score means the tasks are exposed, not that the job will disappear: how employers use that is a separate question.
AI assistance potential is how much AI tools make a worker in this occupation more capable. It is upside, not risk — a job can score high on both.
