Odd that &#x27;graphic designers&#x27; have a 4% risk of automation whereas &#x27;computer programmers&#x27; have a 41% risk given that (1) Stable Diffusion, DALL-E and whatever come next are in the house and (2) computer programmers have to make something correct, but many users of art will tolerate a lot of variance in what they get.<p>For what it&#x27;s worth I also think the 7% for &#x27;mechanical engineer&#x27; seems pretty low given that a lot of what Mech-E&#x27;s do is looking up things in tables and punching numbers into programmable calculators.
