How it works

Start with the work, then weigh the path.

Use these profiles before a guest speaker, during advisory, or as a short career exploration reading. The AI exposure snapshot gives students a better answer than "AI will take this job" or "AI will not": it shows the actual task mix and why human judgment still matters.
