Equipment Selection
How equipment selection are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
Only about 20% of Equipment Selection 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: Derived directly from the skill name and description. 'Equipment Selection' involves determining the kind of physical tools and machinery needed to complete a job, which fundamentally enables hands-on, physical trades and maintenance work rather than information-based digital or knowledge work.
