The 3-factor scorecard (0 to 100)

Rate your role on these three factors. Add them for a total score.

Factor	How to score	Points
Task Repeatability	How much of your week is standardized, documentable, and promptable?	0–40
Automation Speed	How quickly are tools already shipping in your category?	0–30
Human Accountability	Would buyers still pay for a human signature, judgment, and ownership?	0–30 (reverse)

Risk bands: 0–34 low, 35–64 medium, 65–100 high.

How to score each factor honestly

Repeatability (0–40): If your SOP can be written clearly and handed to a junior, AI can usually do 60–80% soon.
Automation speed (0–30): If your tools ship AI features monthly, assume faster disruption than you feel today.
Human accountability (0–30 reverse): If outcomes involve trust, legal risk, or high-stakes judgment, your risk drops.

Example: A content marketer doing mostly briefs + repurposing might score 72 (high risk). A marketer owning brand positioning + stakeholder alignment might score 41 (medium risk).

What to do based on your score

If you scored 65–100 (high risk)

Stop defending current task volume. Shift to owning outcomes.
Pick one adjacent, higher-accountability responsibility this month.
Build proof: before/after speed, quality, or revenue impact.

If you scored 35–64 (medium risk)

Use AI aggressively so you become the operator, not the casualty.
Package your workflow into a team standard others depend on.
Move from “doer” to “decision owner” in your role narrative.

If you scored 0–34 (low risk)

Don’t get complacent. Protect your edge with clearer evidence of value.
Mentor others on human+AI workflows to increase your strategic moat.
Document your method so your role becomes harder to remove.

The mistake most people make

They ask for certainty (“Will AI take my job: yes/no?”). Careers don’t break in one headline—they erode through task-level substitution. The winning move is continuous re-positioning toward work buyers still pay humans to own.
