71% human advantage from judgment & presence
36% demand buffer from SG labour market
AI usage 9pp below theoretical exposure
These factors combine multiplicatively — larger bars do not mean proportionally larger contributions to the final score.
Exposure × (1 − Bottleneck) × Market Modifier. Band stability: watch. How this works

12-Month Outlook
Rule-based, not a prediction
What To Do Next
Athlete/Sportsman has some offset potential, but it depends on task redesign holding up in practice and on workers clearing the main switching frictions.
What helps
- A meaningful share of the work can likely be reorganized around AI rather than removed outright.
What could slow it down
- Current demand support is thin, so offsets may take longer to show up.
