Roughly 54% of a chef's tasks are already exposed to AI (CONTESTED), on an estimated timeline to about 2033. A chef gets augmented before it gets automated — output can 3×, which is great if you're the one wielding the tools and dangerous if you're not.

How we score it

The 54% figure is real AI task-exposure for a chef from the AI Work Index (blending AIOE, the Anthropic Economic Index, Eloundou et al. and the ILO). High exposure means AI can do many of the tasks — it isn't a prediction that the job disappears, and it isn't career advice. How we score →
