Which tasks are exposed

Risk applies to individual tasks—not to a person or an entire occupation.

Task	Risk
pre-flight preparation	29%
checking documentation and weather	24%
monitoring technical condition	20%
flight operation or coordination	15%
radio communications	9%
responding to deviations	3%
post-flight checks	3%
safety-event review	3%

What the score means

The score for Military Pilot reflects the share of formalised repeatable work, the availability of digital data and the feasibility of robotics. Tasks involving accountability, physical variability and professional judgement are much better protected.

AI exposure

The share of cognitive, textual, visual or analytical work that current AI systems can technically assist with or perform.

22%

Robotics

The extent to which robots, autonomous machinery and computer vision can perform physical operations in a prepared environment.

43%

Routine work

The share of operations that repeat, follow stable rules and produce a predictable result.

36%

Digitalization

How much of the input, workflow and output already exists in digital form.

69%

Business incentive

The economic incentive to automate based on task volume, labor cost, frequency and implementation cost.

19%

Human moat

Protection created by accountability, trust, empathy, licensing, negotiation and unpredictable real-world environments.

85%

Task map

AI replaces ↔ AI augments

Each task is positioned by AI capability and the degree of human involvement still required.

Why technology can change this work

digital tools reduce preparation and control time
repeatable physical operations can be mechanised or robotised in structured environments
many cases still require professional judgement
key information often emerges only through direct work
