AI assistance potential
How much AI tools make the worker more capable
Market Research Analysts and Marketing Specialists benefit significantly from modern AI tools, making this role one of the most highly augmented in the professional sector. Generative AI and advanced analytics tools excel at processing vast amounts of unstructured data (such as social media mentions, customer reviews, and interview transcripts), synthesizing consumer sentiment, drafting survey questionnaires, analyzing competitor strategies, and automating the creation of data visualizations and executive reports. An AI-fluent market research analyst can conduct competitive intelligence, trend analysis, and consumer segmentation at a scale and speed that was previously impossible for an individual practitioner, making AI fluency a major differentiator in performance.
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.
