“not cooked” ≠ “nothing changes.” 53 of your 85 charted tasks already run with AI in the loop. this slip shows only what we could source: where studies disagree, we print both. nobody can promise outcomes; anyone who does is selling something.

Task-level AI evidence on this page is largely US-scoped research; local pay and market context differ.
