Why This Score

AI Capability Overlap Increases risk

64% of tasks overlap with current AI

Human Coordination Reduces risk

52% human advantage from judgment & presence

Local Hiring Demand Reduces risk

51% demand buffer from SG labour market

Observed AI Adoption Increases risk

AI usage 8pp above theoretical exposure

Official Demand Signals Reduces risk

Listed on SOL — active government demand recognition

These factors combine multiplicatively — larger bars do not mean proportionally larger contributions to the final score.

Tasks AI can handle

Running standard statistical analyses, generating charts, cleaning data, writing SQL queries, and producing summary reports from structured data.

Where humans stay essential

Framing the right question, identifying data quality issues, interpreting results in business context, communicating insights to non-technical stakeholders, and making judgment calls on methodology.

Methodology

What To Do Next

Offset potential: Medium Separate from the core score. This estimates how much demand, redesign room, and transition support could cushion pressure.

Computer engineer has some offset potential, but it depends on task redesign holding up in practice and on workers clearing the main switching frictions.

Demand support: Medium Transition support: Medium Reallocation room: Medium Switching friction: High
