Andrej Karpathy, the director of AI at Tesla, has launched a novel research tool visualizing 342 US occupations from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). This interactive treemap displays each occupation's employment size as a rectangle, with color indicating AI exposure levels. Users can toggle metrics like projected growth, median pay, education needs, and the new 'Digital AI Exposure' option.

The tool's core innovation lies in its LLM-powered coloring: users define a prompt, the model scores occupations, and the treemap colors accordingly. For example, prompting 'Rate AI exposure on a scale of 0-10' yields scores like 9/10 for software developers, reflecting AI's rapid transformation of digital tasks. Karpathy's tool offers a unique, visual exploration of how AI reshapes the job market.
