How We Process the Data

  • Employment: Sector totals taken directly from Eurostat (exact). Split into individual occupations = estimated proportions within sectors.
  • Salaries: Median gross hourly pay from VSE 2022 × 2,080 hrs/year × 1.17 (13th + 14th salary) = annual gross salary.
  • AI Exposure: Estimated via LLM (same methodology as Karpathy's original). Not empirical measurement, but an informed estimate.
  • Job Outlook: Qualitative estimates based on WIFO and AMS reports.
