COUNTRY PROFILE · VEN

Venezuela 🇻🇪

Limited disruption pressure across 40 representative jobs covering 90.6% of the country's modelled GDP. The Rebellion Risk profile adds a structural-pressure view of how disruption may interact with economic strain, governance, civic space, support systems, and history. Government Preparedness then measures observable capacity to prevent, absorb, and respond to AI-related shocks. These are evidence indexes, not forecasts.

GDP-WEIGHTED REPRESENTATIVE WORK

Jobs shaping Venezuela's score

EVIDENCE OVER TIME

Confidence is reduced for modelled inputs. Social protection uses the ILO's 2023 lower middle income group estimate because a complete country-level public download was unavailable. Other fallback fields: inflation.

Prevention carries 40% of the final score. Absorption and response each carry 30%. The geometric mean limits compensation when one stage is materially weaker.

Confidence is reduced for modelled inputs. Social protection uses the ILO's 2023 lower middle income estimate. Other fallbacks: Responsible AI safeguards.
