The bottom line

Only about 20% of Florists is information work today — the rest is physical, and moves slowly. The exposure is concentrated in the back office: the books, the paperwork, the scheduling, the marketing.

Why: With no child occupations or tools seeded, the scalar is derived entirely from the NAICS industry lens and description. The core value-producing work—retailing physical cut flowers, potting plants, and manually preparing floral arrangements—is inherently hands-on. While AI can handle retail orchestration and order routing, the actual preparation and delivery of floral goods cannot be digitized, placing this firmly in the physical band.

Autonomous Agents as digital employees

Which of this work becomes digital labor — performed under typed authority, promoted to autonomy on track record.
