In 2013 Carl Benedikt Frey and Michael A. Osborne published a report titled "The Future of Employment: How susceptible are jobs to computerisation?”. The authors examine how susceptible jobs are to computerisation, by implementing a novel methodology to estimate the probability of computerisation for 702 detailed occupations, using a Gaussian process classifier.

According to their estimates, about 47 percent of total US employment is at risk. Although the report is specific to the US job market, it is easy to see how this might apply all over the world.

We introduce our profession and get a list of a number of related ones with an indication of the percentage probability of the disappearance of this profession. For example, the probability of the disappearance of the accounting profession is 98%, and the webmaster 1.6%.
