I charted the OpenAI GDPVal paper with industry compensation as the size and AI augmentation as color. Big green areas are we’re paying people where AI does better.

I use this to check whom to ask advice: AI or professional.
AI beats Personal Financial Advisors ~64% of the time. So I invested half my money using ChatGPT’s recommendation. (UTI Nifty 50, if you’re curious.)
Accountants beat AI 76% of the time. So my tax returns are still filed by Ventura Pranas.
AI beats Government - Administrative Services Managers 62% of the time. I haven’t figured out how to bypass them yet. Nor customer service representatives.
Overall, AI beats most managers and clerks, not industrial engineers and pharmacists.
Here’s my current thought where I wouldn’t hire AI if a high portion of their work
- Has legal liability (e.g. pharmacist/judge vs shop attendant/lawyer)
- Is subjective (e.g. perfumer/auction appraiser vs lab chemist/insurance appraiser)
- Needs rapid contextual decisions (e.g. detective/fireman/ER vs parking enforcer)
But this apart, if they charged half, would their demand double? If so, even with AI, they’ll have more demand.
