AI does the work - a human signs it
AI increasingly produces the work; the law still requires a qualified human to approve it and carry the liability. A leaner profession - the licence is real protection, but the route to qualification is being rebuilt underneath you.

What this means
Today's figure is an AI exposure index, not a direct measurement of how much AI is used in this job. The later figures are a Careermash scenario, not a forecast. We do not show a forecast of how many of these jobs there will be, or how hard it will be to get in later.
What we assume in the scenario: AI keeps getting cheaper and better; robots arrive more slowly. THE DOOR shows entry difficulty today only, as a Careermash rule of thumb from A (easy) to E (extremely hard); it is not a forecast or an official statistic.

Aim to earn the licence

Get good at checking work
By the time you start, AI will do many of the routine tasks. The human job becomes spotting mistakes and saying yes or no. Build careful, accurate thinking through subjects like maths, science and English.

Be the person people trust
Jobs that only churn out work will shrink, but someone must take the blame and keep people's trust. Practise explaining things clearly and being reliable, and look at a few similar licensed jobs, not just one.
