Study scripts to determine project requirements.

Study scripts to determine project requirements. is a detailed work activity in O*NET — a concrete unit of work shared across 7 occupations and seen in 9 occupation-specific tasks. It rolls up into the broader work activity Study details of artistic productions. in Getting Information .

Detailed work activities are the most granular shared layer in O*NET's work-activity hierarchy (Generalized → Intermediate → Detailed → occupation-specific task). The figures below describe how this activity shows up across the economy and what independent studies measure about AI and this kind of work — not a prediction that the work will be automated.

AI exposure

Of the 9 tasks under this activity that the OpenAI / Eloundou “GPTs are GPTs” study rated, 7 (78%) are flagged as directly exposed to language models (E1) or exposed via model-powered tools (E2).

The Anthropic Economic Index observes real AI use on 7 of these tasks, with a mean mapped-usage share of 0.012% per task.

Exposure estimates overlap with model capabilities — whether a model could speed the task up — not whether the work will be done by software. Observed AI use is augmentation and assistance today, not jobs replaced.

Member tasks

Occupation-specific tasks O*NET maps to this detailed work activity, most important first.

• Read scripts to determine location, set, and design requirements. · Set and Exhibit Designers · importance 4.8 · exposure with tools
• Study and rehearse roles from scripts to interpret, learn and memorize lines, stunts, and cues as directed. · Actors · importance 4.7 · no direct exposure
• Learn about characters in scripts and their relationships to each other to develop role interpretations. · Actors · importance 4.4 · direct LLM exposure
• Study and research scripts to determine how they should be directed. · Producers and Directors · importance 4.2 · exposure with tools
• Study scripts to become familiar with production concepts and requirements. · Film and Video Editors · importance 4.0 · direct LLM exposure
• Read scripts and confer with producers to determine the types and numbers of performers required for a given production. · Talent Directors · importance 3.6 · exposure with tools
• Read and study story lines and musical scores to determine how to translate ideas and moods into dance movements. · Choreographers · importance 3.6 · no direct exposure
• Study films or scripts to determine how musical scores can be used to create desired effects or moods. · Music Directors and Composers · importance 3.5 · exposure with tools
