Find out how susceptible is your job to computerization

8 followers

In 2013 Carl Benedikt Frey and Michael A. Osborne published a report titled "The Future of Employment: How susceptible are jobs to computerisation?”. The authors examine how susceptible jobs are to computerisation, by implementing a novel methodology to estimate the probability of computerisation for 702 detailed occupations, using a Gaussian process classifier.

Wait, we're using a robot to determine if robots will take our jobs? They're already snickering.

@johnbhiggins Just you wait til a messenger bot will tell how likely it that your job will be automated away, that's some scary shit right there!

@johnbhiggins to true!

@raihasen perfect use of words #jobboard

there's a 1.5% chance "Chief Executives" will become robots

@davidsmooke haha, some might say they are robots already! 🤖

@davidsmooke "-1% expected growth" sounds scarier to me. 🤔

@davidsmooke I rather agree because it requires leadership robot can't have. But I think middle management will be threatened.

@davidsmooke on this one I want to disagree ;p | https://venturebeat.com/2017/04/...

They can't steal your job if you don't have one

Thanks for the hunt @bentossell ! Just a few weeks ago, I joined the freelance.tv (thx @dannpetty) community slack where @dreamture reached out to see if I might be interested on working on a side project. I've been involved in the bot scene for a while (👋 https://www.producthunt.com/post...), so Dimitar's idea to build a website to show how susceptible your job is to automation peeked my interest. He had found the data in an report published in 2013, and we pulled in some additional data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, and we had the basis of our website. Dimitar did a great job of designing a clean but interesting interface, and I got to coding. We pulled the data into Algolia to make it easy to find the jobs. I found the numbers interesting, and seeing how far things have come since 2013, I'm curious to see how automation will continue to move into the work place. Hope you like it!

@mubashariqbal @bentossell @dannpetty @dreamture nice use of ONET data guys! We used onet data at my last startup to build a KSA map of all the jobs in the US. I like your use of the data set! Are you catching the data locally and using your own services or are you using ONETs API? Did you consider including the related job titles in the API call? The occupational titles seem too broad, if you add related job titles that brings your jobs up to around 85k different possible "street names" for jobs.

There's only 1.4% chance that my job will be replaced by a robot 😌 but WHAT ABOUT THE 98.6% CHANCE THAT IT'LL BE TAKEN OVER BY ANOTHER HUMAN!!! 😱
Markus Gerke
Great job, thanks for that work.

One thing could be better: When I click on "random", I get a page reload and need to go back to the homepage to get a new random job. A global random-button would be nice.
Dimitar Raykov
@markusgerke Thanks for the feedback! Yep, you weren't the first to ask for this so we obviously missed that. :)
Sourav Ray
This perhaps the safest job in the world
Dimitar Raykov
@souravray Actually the safest job is https://willrobotstakemyjob.com/... 😬
John Schenk
@souravray Nobody wants those jobs... including robots. lol
Cara Parrish
@souravray Only in the way that "safest" means robots don't take it. The irony being in terms of physical safety it's not highly ranked at all.
Bharath B Lohray
@souravray @dreamture I tried searching for "prostitute" it is missing in the DB. I can think of these creepy being from the AI Movie, what is the probability of that coming to pass?
