In this paper we characterize workers’ vulnerability to automation in the near future in Argentina as a function of the … exposure to routinization of the tasks that they perform and the potential automation of their occupation. In order to do that … labor variables. We find that the ongoing process of automation is likely to significantly affect the structure of …
