AI Task Exposure Gap Analysis

Sector benches, occupation breadth, concentration, and a heatmap of where exposed tasks do — and do not — appear across the sector-by-occupation matrix.

What pushes back on the consensus

The dataset is much less about one “safe” sector and much more about a broad, multi-sector bench of exposed work.

    Occupation Tasks Share of Sector
    1) Sector exposure ranking
    Professional services lands in the top tier, but it shares that position with most of the sample rather than standing apart from it.
    2) Sector gap from the even-share benchmark
    The widest underrepresentation gap sits in Retail Trade; nearly every other sector is clustered just above the average.
    3) Sector concentration (Pareto view)
    A handful of sectors matter, but not to an extreme degree: the first five account for just over half of exposed tasks.
    4) Occupation concentration curve
    Occupation exposure is unusually flat — no small set of occupations dominates the task bench.
    5) Sector-by-occupation gap heatmap
    Colored cells mark where exposed tasks appear; the empty cells show the gaps. Occupations are grouped by their associated sector to make the bench structure easier to read.
    6) Coverage hierarchy across sectors and occupations
    The hierarchy shows a wide sector spread and an almost perfectly even occupation split inside each sector branch.
