Based on the Brookings/NBER adaptive capacity framework — a quick self-assessment of your ability to transition between occupations if AI disrupts your field.
About this tool: This assessment is based on the NBER/Brookings adaptive capacity index (Manning & Aguirre, 2026), which measures workers' ability to cope with AI-driven displacement using four dimensions: financial buffers, skill transferability, geographic labor market density, and career stage. The scoring thresholds approximate findings that 4.2% of the US workforce falls into the "high AI exposure + low adaptive capacity" vulnerability category — concentrated in clerical/administrative roles (86% women) in smaller metros. This tool is for self-reflection only and not a substitute for professional career counseling.
