Management of Material Resources
How management of material resources are reshaped as AGI capability advances.
The bottom line
About 55% of the work in Management of Material Resources is information-shaped and increasingly AI-deliverable, with the rest a hybrid of judgment and hands-on work. The automation frontier runs straight through the middle of this role.
Why: Derived primarily from the skill name 'Management of Material Resources' and its description of obtaining and overseeing the use of physical equipment, facilities, and materials. Because it involves cognitive planning and administrative oversight applied to real-world physical assets, it is a broadly-applied hybrid skill.
