AI assistance potential
How much AI tools make the worker more capable
First-line supervisors of police and detectives spend a significant portion of their time on administrative tasks, report reviews, legal policy updates, shift scheduling, and evidence management. AI tools can meaningfully boost productivity by assisting with the summarization of investigative reports and body-worn camera transcripts, drafting documentation, automating scheduling workflows, and querying complex departmental policies. However, core supervisory responsibilities—including direct personnel leadership, disciplinary actions, tactical decisions, and high-stakes ethical judgments—depend heavily on human presence, authority, and interpersonal management.
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.
