Hey everyone, Like many of you, I’ve been following the discussion around Andrej Karpathy’s recent AI job exposure map. It’s a brilliant baseline, but it has one major flaw that’s causing a lot of unnecessary panic: it strictly measures theoretical risk. Just because an LLM can do a task in a vacuum doesn’t mean businesses are ready to change their workflows, handle the legal risks, or replace their workforce tomorrow. There is a massive gap between “AI can do this” and “companies are actually doing this right now.” I wanted a more grounded reality check, so I built a pet project to measure both sides: MyJobRisk.com . Instead of just asking a single LLM “can you do this job?”, the tool calculates risk in layers: Task Score (The Theory): I break down each profession into specific daily tasks and run a deep research protocol using multiple LLMs to get a stable, non-hallucinated view of what is theoretically automatable. External Baseline: I cross-reference this with independent data from McKinsey, WEF, OpenAI, and Intuition Labs so the system doesn’t operate in a bubble. Current Adoption Score (The Reality): This is the most important part. I track real market signals and reports (Gallup, NBER, Anthropic, Indeed) to see if businesses are actually implementing AI for these specific tasks right now. The result is a more realistic picture. A job might have a 9/10 theoretical risk, but only a 3/10 actual adoption score because the industry is slow to adapt. It’s not a perfect crystal ball, but I think it’s a much healthier way to look at the market and figure out if you need to pivot or just learn a few new tools. Everything is transparent—you can click on your job and see exactly which sources and layers make up your score. I’d love for you guys to check your professions at MyJobRisk.com and let me know: does the Actual Adoption Score match what you are seeing on the ground in your industry? Would love any feedback on the methodology too! submitted by /u/Imaginary_Winter_950
