How likely is your job to be automated?
 

Here's a link to do a lookup: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/201...niversity-one/. You can do a search in the table.

There may be nuanced differences, so look up synonyms for your job. For example, my initial guess of market research analyst is 61% likely to be automated, but survey researcher is only 23 percent likely to be automated, and management analysis is only 13 percent. I might also be a marketing manager (kind of), which is only 1.4 percent likely. If I average these, I figure I'm about 24.6 percent likely to have my job go away in the future.

Considering that one of the key pieces of my job is automating other people's jobs?

:hmmm:

Pig jerking cannot be automated.

I'm a system programmer. 99% of my job is already automated. I spend 100% of my time making sure the other 99% is running correctly.

Mine said 65% but it won't matter to me. I doubt it will happen in four years and I will be retired by then.

Electrical Engineer, oh hell no.

How is model listed at 98%?

Mine is at 0.5% for mental health counselor. I’m guessing no one will beat that.

I work as a technician fixing automation robots. I put over 99% because it’s technically already automation, but if you’re talking how long until we make automation robots to fix the automation robots then that is a whole different story. I hope I’m not around to see that day.

Mine says 25% but a lot of mine is writing program to automate the busy work anyways. So not really sure

0% chance of the business owner.

I'm hoping the field operations get automated so I can do more managing but that is unlikely.

Like I've went into on the automated cars, they have to figure out the liability issue if there is no operator - it then falls on the manufacturer and Mother Deere doesn't play that way.

21 percent likely as a web developer. A lot of it is already automated so I guess I feel pretty good about that.

10 percent according to the link. Look to your left and then look to your right, and then look three more to your left and four more to your right, and one of you is a goner.

Just put sensors around your fields and then it's basically a giant roomba

Actually you could very easily use GPS to have one of those run through a field by itself

Yeah, but it would scare the feral cats.

Architect.

I’m good.

People Leadership and Cyber Security

If they pay me, they can feel free to automate this mother****er.

lmao An actor has a 37% chance of being computerized??? What nerds put this list together!?!

Woody says hi.

What happened to marine biology? I really thought you would do well in it.

Don't need it. GPS boundaries. The technology has been there for a decade and a half, but Deere won't release it because if some kid runs out in front of a planter or something, there is no operator to assume liability, so it falls on Mother Deere. Mother Deere don't play that way, so there has to be an operator in the machine that is responsible for collision avoidance.

8% for fish and game wardens, 9.8% for regular police/sheriff.

Can't really see how.

Already see it in poker. It used to be the easiest players or close to it were bots - now they have advanced strategies and are never prone to tilt playing an unexploitable strategy.

I've started a go-fund-me called "I-Jack". We provide hand jobs for our robot masters....

I would am the one implementing the automation.

My job isn't listed, does that mean zero?

How safe would you feel flying knowing there isn’t a pilot upfront. It’s coming in the next 6-9 decades.

As a retired but part-time delivery driver just to keep me busy it said 60+%. I'm betting it will take until after I'm tired of this gig.

0% chance.

About as safe as I would a car that is automated, not much at all. I mean, I have seen the blue screen of Windows. Know what I mean?

Being a salesman has it's advantages

I'm in high tech software sales, so the chance of automating that process is extremely slim.

There are so many aspects in a cockpit that can’t be automated with current technology. Even so, with automated vehicles, tractors, trains, etc. There is a human element that just can’t be replaced for safety.

Right. That's kind of where I'm at.

I've posted about automation several times on here. It's a freight train coming to change our society. AI and cheap processing power is putting this into overdrive. I personally designed a plan a couple of months ago that will render over 100 jobs obsolete. Many >$100K.

People can ignore it until their family or neighbor loses their job but its already here. Every scientific study/article I've read says 30%-40% of current jobs will be lost. The worst unemployment % in the depression of the 30's was 22%. Every field will be affected. Those who think in this poll that it wont effect them are delusional. No job or field will be spared.

Just think of the societal change coming. There will be an estimated 5% gain in jobs with automation. But, your still at depression level unemployment. We are going to have to institute some level of basic income for citizens to keep them off the street and starving, prevent riots.

I hope we embrace this evolution because these lost jobs are never coming back. You cant stop the automation train.

maybe thats what you make the sensors for, it shocks the kid and puts him down until the equipment gets done doing its job

7.1%

21% for actuaries. Seems about right. The data/predictive analytics part of the field is already heading that way.

We are a consumer economy more than anything else now. Have you taken into account that your field will have 30% less global and USA customers?

I dunno....I'm retired. I guess that at least for me - death is the final "automation"

This thread is nothing but a forum for humblebrags about jobs. Come on, I know some of you are cotton pickers or something.

If your getting Social Security money, you'll be effected. When revenues fall and people are desperate, you think politicians wont go after the piggy bank of social security funds? Hell, they already do it now.

Again, even cotton pickers aren't getting off the hook.:)

Um, what?

The actuarial industry is expecting strong growth as we continue to be more and more data driven. As a health actuary, we aren’t going anywhere.

I have worked in a factory for a long time cutting open bags and dumping them into bins. It still looks like a long ways off that it is automated. Lifeline foods here in st joseph is the same way. You get 16 an hour for sweeping corn. You would think that they would automate that but there is no plans or talk of it at all.

I cut bags open and dump them into buckets.

That is why eventually we will have no choice but to move to socialism. Its going to suck. If even 35% of your workforce cant work - then government & society needs to start paying people just to exist & take shits. Universal Basic Income. The idiots you see now playing video games on Twitch, making YouTube content. They are ahead of the curve actually. That is where we are headed and how many will make money.

Uh as a sys admin, I spend a decent amount of time already automating monotonous tasks. However DevOps is bringing a lot more to play in my area of field.

If I had to guess, i'd say 25%. Not everyone is bleeding edge either due to manpower, knowledge or money. It's not cheap to implement, let alone manage. I think most managers think once you automate something, you step back and forget about it. But there's care and feeding to keep it going.

I can see them automating your job, but I don't see them ever automating the buckets' jobs.

I don't know....I've seen that hammer being used for the last 50 years - each and every political season - the "wannabes" tell us that "THEY" (the government I guess) is going to take our social security away - yet here it is.

So no - I'm not too worried about that.

automation won't be for your job, your job will be eliminated because of better processing equipment eliminates the spoils and/or need to hand load material.

Your job has already been automated. As a robot, you just don't have the self-awareness to realize it.

Mine isn't even on there.

.6% woo woo!

It seems like automating the job of 'professional football player' would solve a lot of the challenges the NFL is facing. No more concussions, no more big contract demands, no more domestic violence scandals, no more drug testing...you know they're working on it.

So would you watch football if it was played by robots?

Wouldn't it be the exact same team....just with a different logo and uniform?

All the jobs will be automated by 2030, we'll all be flying around in our cars by 2000.

Closest one I could find was Art Director at 2.3, next closest is animator at 1.5. I think that is underestimated.

It's hard to automate a mean old man with arthritis. Just sayin'.

The good thing about being broke is you already have the skl of getting busy while broke.

not a solution. As the tech progresses and becomes easier, There will always be someone to write the code cheaper. And A.I. Is going to write any code that you would need.

You already have a rudimentary code generating with Powershell. Just select some boxes it generates the code you need to automate the task. Azure, it’s even easier.

If your job is automated I'm probably going to be the one programming it. So at least I'm last to go before skynet takes over.

89% chance that technical writing will be automated?

Pffeh, yeah, that's gonna happen? Too many manuals read like they're written by monkeys already. A "good" tech writer takes the system/user interface into account and does good analysis on the product before they ever begin writing.

I got a pacemaker and an artificial heart valve. Think I’m already partially automated.

ROFL


WE were told that we would have flying cars in 1969......Ooooops...

Even though teachers are doing more online and there are online schools, I do not feel like education can be completely automated.

Computers are good at correcting multiple choice tests, but cannot grade opinion and project based learning.

So I am going to vote 20%.

Also-even computers and robots do not want to be around MIDDLE SCHOOL CHILDREN.

I do too many jobs to ever be automated.

In a single day i could be doing any assortment of these things:

Parts Install
Parts Sales
Parts Orders
Vehicle Build planning & in person meetings with clients.
Estimates
Payment Processing and Accounting
Tech Support
Customer Service
Social Media Interaction on I.G and FB, i maintain our YouTube too.

Advertising and marketing, i.e designing flyers, business cards, brochures, store signs, stickers, clothing and all other print media etc.
Video filming & editing

Company itinerary for whatever is needed at the time. This ranges from our own personal custom Day/month/week Planners, labor sheets, parts request forms, anything in excel etc. Any document that helps us stay more organized, i make.

Creating instructions for our products (uploading them to our site in PDF format)
Product photography (using a light booth and then edited in Photoshop)
Vehicle Photography for our Social Media
Website development and updates i.e adding new products, banners, graphics etc. We use a Drupal site which is pretty advanced.

I'm sure im missing stuff, but you get the idea.

Oh, and posting on Chiefsplanet in the meantime lol

Yeah, the crap not written by tech writers is useless. It’s either so superficial that it probably unusable or they try to hard to provide every single detail and then you can’t find what your looking for quickly.

.6%.

Not bad.

1.5

seems high.

Seems like the should also look at how MUCH of a job is likely to be automated. The jobs like data entry and bookkeeping and jobs focused around singular, well-defined tasks. Jobs like “engineering” are not so singular. Sure, many of the tasks performed by an engineer can and will become automated, but defining the problem to be solved and setting in which it will be implemented involves other tasks which will never be automated because they are unique and the risk to human safety from having the entire process automated is too great.

they can’t automate artistic talent. But, business can get hurt by people getting laid off. That would effect the commercial side of art. Less disposable income to spend on art by the public. As far as automation goes, your talent may be one of the best suited to not be affected.

I don't know their methodology, but it seems like it might not be actual jobs getting eliminated, but rather the mundane parts of jobs being eliminated and then the remaining tasks being Consolidated into fewer FTEs. At least, that's how I would envision it.

Agreed, that would make more sense. The jobs with a higher percentage of mundane tasks will be affected to a greater degree.

I will absolutely be retired before AI takes over
