This paper (12 page PDF) falls into the well-established genre of "AI's roles in augmenting versus automating work" via the mechanism of the EPOCH framework (Empathy, Presence, Opinion, Creativity, and Hope) that captures (argue the authors) "human capabilities that complement, rather than substitute, artificial intelligence." It's interesting that individual personal experience - probably the most important thing humans bring to the table - is missing from the picture. Also, the role of community, the result of person-to-person interaction, is nowhere present. Anyhow, the framework is applied to a series of vocations to estimate their vulnerability to AI. "EPOCH scores are calculated at task, task-cluster, and occupation levels, while automation and augmentation scores are computed at the occupation level." I don't think we have a good analysis yet of AI capabilities, especially as compared to human capabilities, and the metric depends on this.
