Will AI replace my job?

Not exactly. AI doesn't replace whole jobs, but specific tasks within them. Some tasks will be automated, others will remain human. Our analysis shows you exactly which ones.

Which professions are safest from AI?

Professions with high empathy, creativity, ethical judgment, and physical presence components are more resistant. But even these will see some tasks automated.

When will AI replace these jobs?

We use 3 horizons: Now (0-2 years), Next (3-5 years), and Later (5-10 years). Each task has its own timeline based on current technology and trends.
