Methodology and Scoring Rationale

To score how resilient title examining work is to AI, we ask one question in three parts:

First, how much of the job still needs a human, read from five AI-exposure sources: our own AI Resilience Model, Anthropic's Observed Exposure, Microsoft's AI Applicability, Will Robots Take My Job, and OpenAI Signals. We call this dimension Meaningful Human Contribution (MHC) and weight it at 40%.

Next, whether employers will keep hiring for this job over the long term. This dimension, which we call Long-term Employer Demand (LTE), is calculated from BLS data and weighted at 30%.

Last, whether pay and mobility will hold up. We use wage bill and adaptive capacity data from independent researchers (Althoff & Reichardt, 2026; Manning & Aguirre, 2026). We call this dimension Sustained Economic Opportunity (SEO) and weight it at 30%.

For title examiners, seven of eight sources had data, with Adaptive Capacity missing. AI exposure was split: Anthropic and Microsoft saw meaningful human judgment staying in the work, while AI Resilience Model and Will Robots Take My Job flagged high automation risk. That disagreement, plus low economic opportunity signals, keeps confidence at medium-high and the score at "Somewhat Resilient."

Title Examiners, Abstractors, and Searchers are somewhat less resilient to AI impacts than most occupations, according to our analysis of 7 sources.

Title Examiner work is labeled "Somewhat Resilient" because AI is already handling a real chunk of the routine tasks in this field, like searching records, parsing documents, and flagging potential risks, but the deeper judgment work still needs a human expert. The tricky parts of the job, like interpreting legal nuances, resolving title defects, and decoding handwritten historical documents, are things AI simply cannot do reliably on its own.
