Personal and Laundry Services
How personal and laundry services are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Only about 15% of Personal and Laundry Services 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: Grounded heavily on the LENS prior and description for NAICS Subsector 812, which centers on direct, hands-on work like laundry, personal care, death care, and pet care. Since the children occupations lack known digital scalars, I relied on the industry description; the core value-producing step is overwhelmingly physical labor, with AI limited to scheduling and business administration.
