Will AI Replace Your Job?
Which parts of your work a machine is already good at.
How this is scored
16 items about the shape of your work, grouped into five task types that automation research treats separately. It profiles exposure (how much of your work is the kind machines do well), not whether your job survives. That depends on cost, regulation, and what your employer decides, none of which a questionnaire can see.

Before you start
The 5 possible results
Every answer nudges you toward one of these. Here is what each one means.
Highly exposed, and early
Almost everything you described is the kind of work current systems already do at speed: repeatable, judged against a right answer, and made of text or data on a screen. That does not mean your job disappears.
Substantially exposed
A big share of your week is automatable and a real part of it is not. The exposed part is usually the routine middle: drafting, summarising, formatting, first passes.
Mixed: the shape matters more than the job title
You sit in the middle, which is where most work actually is. Roughly half of what you do is mechanisable and half rests on judgement, presence, or trust.
Mostly insulated
Most of your work depends on things automation is still bad at: unstructured problems, personal trust, and being physically somewhere. The realistic risk to you is not replacement but dilution: tools arriving around you and changing what colleagues expect you to produce, and how fast.
Hard to automate
Your work is built almost entirely out of the parts machines handle worst: unpredictable physical settings, human trust, and calls with no procedure behind them. Nothing about the current direction of the technology puts that near the front of the queue.
