Averaged across 14 O*NET tasks, weighted by importance.

AI assistance potential

How much AI tools make the worker more capable

6.5/ 10High

Agents and business managers rely heavily on negotiation, personal relationships, trust, and talent evaluation, which remain inherently human functions. However, AI tools significantly boost productivity across many support workflows. Generative AI accelerates the creation of marketing materials, media kits, pitch decks, and promotional copy for clients. AI-driven contract analysis tools allow managers to rapidly review, benchmark, and redline deal terms, while predictive analytics and data scraping tools provide deeper insights into industry trends, streaming metrics, and valuation for endorsements. While personal network building remains paramount, an AI-fluent agent can handle administrative affairs and promotional outreach far more efficiently, allowing them to effectively represent a larger client roster or secure better-data-backed deals.

Traits, pay and fit for Talent Manager

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.
