Journalists
Emerging disruption pressure. This profile combines theoretical task exposure, observed professional AI use, and a deliberately weak early labour-market signal. It does not claim that journalists will disappear.

Why the score is 30.7
The ILO signal covers 10 international task statements. The observed-use measure maps the nearest compatible O*NET occupation from the Anthropic dataset. Mapping uncertainty is included in confidence.
- Theoretical task exposure 35% weight
- 53.6
- Observed professional adoption 55% weight
- 21.0
- Early labour-market signal 10% weight
- 4.2
How much of the international occupation's task content GenAI could technically assist or perform.
How much capable task coverage appears in automated or work-related Claude usage.
Capped at one fifth of observed adoption because broad unemployment effects have not been established.

Job Doom progression
Scores change only when comparable evidence becomes available. The June 2026 release changed its measurement pipeline, so the March value is held rather than manufacturing a false movement.

Countries where this job enters the 90% set
The same job score is reused internationally, while its estimated GDP importance changes with each country's economy. This avoids pretending sparse local score evidence means the occupation behaves differently without proof.
