🤖 AI, Automation and Work: What Task-Level Analysis Actually Shows

Interactive 3D job and task grid where adjusting an AI-automation-exposure slider by occupation shows which specific tasks, not whole jobs, shift from human to automated, updating a labour-market chart.

An interactive 3D grid of eight occupations and their representative tasks, where an AI-capability slider reveals which individual tasks — not whole jobs — shift from human to automated, alongside a live labour-market chart.

🔬 What It Demonstrates

Each task carries its own automation-exposure threshold and time-share. As AI capability rises, tasks flip independently, so most occupations end up partially automated — a very different picture from the "whole job disappears" narrative.

🎮 How to Use

Drag the AI capability slider, focus a single occupation from the dropdown, and switch between the realistic task-level model and the naive whole-job model to see how much the framing changes the outcome.

💡 Did You Know?

Studies of generative-AI task exposure find that most workers have some tasks that are highly automatable, but very few have jobs made up entirely of such tasks — which is exactly the gap this simulation makes visible.
