What this score means for Truck Driver.

The Truck Driver role scores in the most AI-resistant band. The work that defines it — the physical, procedural, and relational core — is not on the table for current generative AI. Routine paperwork is being eaten; the actual job is not. Over the next 5 years the score is projected to drift down by 9 points based on the service vertical's drift rate. Quarterly recomputes track the actual change.

Author note: Self-driving trucks remain a 5-10 year horizon risk; AI text models do not threaten the core job.
