Date 1984-04 · publication Role Context Register (kind of text) Nonfiction Missing element (M02-04) Task language without a task-allocation model; the model works through input-output labour coefficients by occupation and sector. Computers, not AI. (M02-05) Software replacing decision-making tasks of managers, stated descriptively; no task-allocation framework, not AI. (M02-06) Robots taking over tasks previously done only by humans, in prose; the model represents this as labour displacement rates per robot in six production occupations, not a task framework. Not AI. Tier Tier 1. Report by economists (Leontief and Duchin, NYU Institute for Economic Analysis). Conditions (M02-04) Labour savings 'of particular significance' for banking, insurance, legal services and government. (M02-05) 'certain' tasks. The passage adds that fewer managers will be needed as integrated office systems reduce clerical staff. (M02-06) Supported by the Robot Institute of America definition, quoted by the authors.

Re-checked at admission on 2026-10-14 against a copy retrieved that day. Status and meaning Editorial status. Not reviewed by an editor . An exploratory record that no editor has accepted. This status does not say whether a person has read any linked passage. Each evidence record above shows how it was checked.
Relation. A passage of the document bears on the proposition without meeting its criterion; the record names the missing element. It is not an articulation and implies no influence.
Date. ERIC résumé: "Apr 84". Published in book form as The Future Impact of Automation on Workers (Oxford University Press, 1986; not retrieved). Chapters 4 and 5 were drafted by other members of the Institute (Howell; McDonough), per the report; the record attributes the report to Leontief and Duchin as its authors. Checked in a current copy; an archive capture was not available, so earlier bytes are not authenticated.
