Fitness and recreation instructors and program leaders
In the ILO's assessment few of the job's tasks can be done by generative AI, or the scores are too spread out to reach gradient 1 — generative AI does not meaningfully take over the core of the work.
Exposure is not job loss: it shows how much of the work generative AI could do today. Whether that turns into transformation, productivity gains or cuts depends on employers, regulation — and on you.
0 = today’s generative AI cannot perform any of the job’s tasks, 100 = it could do all of them fully. The pale band is the spread across tasks.

The AI analysis for this occupation is still being prepared — the background process covers a few occupations every day.
Task by task
The ILO scored every task of the occupation separately, as the average of two AI models (GPT-4o and Gemini). The pale band is the range between the two models' scores, the dot the ILO's final score (for a few tasks expert review placed it outside the band).
- Instructing in the use of equipment33
- Planning and carrying out recreational and fitness activities28
- Evaluating and monitoring clients’ abilities and fitness and recommending activities26
- Demonstrating and teaching body movements, concepts and skills used in fitness routines and recreational activities24
- Explaining and enforcing safety procedures, rules and regulations.24
- Monitoring recreational, sports or fitness activities to ensure safety and provide emergency or first aid assistance when required13
