Why technology can change this work

  • AI automatically drafts analyses, finds correlations and explains standard deviations
  • AI accelerates pattern discovery and experimental analysis
  • laboratory platforms automate repetitive procedures
  • models generate hypotheses and candidate materials or molecules

What protects the occupation

  • choosing the right question and checking causality rather than correlation alone
  • framing meaningful research questions
  • a large share of value comes from human judgement, trust or personal accountability
  • causality and evidence-quality assessment
  • methodological and interpretive accountability
