According to the assessment of automation vulnerability, which characteristics are expected to allow roles to persist and grow rather than face immediate risk?

High degrees of creativity, complex judgment, or emotional intelligence

The resilience of a job against automation is determined by the nature of the tasks involved. Jobs characterized by highly repetitive physical tasks or routine data processing are identified as being at the highest risk of automation or outsourcing. Conversely, roles that fundamentally rely on uniquely human capacities—such as high levels of creativity, the application of complex judgment to non-routine situations, or deep emotional intelligence—are the ones expected to persist and experience growth. This distinction separates a clinical psychologist conducting therapy from a paralegal performing routine document review, even if both handle data.
