Definitions, coverage and reproducibility
Scores estimate the potential for GenAI to perform tasks within an occupation. A score of 0.70 is not a 70% probability of losing a job, nor a measured percentage of workers replaced. It does not measure adoption or completed layoffs.
427 occupations in the published chart export; the broader ILO study describes 436 detailed occupations. Not weighted by number of workers.
