Why this score

Your core work — leading seminar discussions on democratic theory, mentoring graduate students through dissertation research, and producing original peer-reviewed scholarship on political institutions — sits firmly outside what AI can replicate. The tasks most exposed are peripheral: auto-generating quiz questions, summarizing reading materials, and drafting syllabi, none of which define your professional value. Strong accreditation requirements and institutional norms around academic freedom structurally protect your position. The real question isn't whether AI replaces you — it's whether you use this stability to become the professor who shapes how political science itself responds to AI-driven governance challenges.
