AI can get you up to speed fast and suggest where to look, but you need to confirm findings against real sources, records or people.
Part of Research technology designs or applications, under the O*NET work activity group Getting Information. Individual tasks below can carry a different label when their own wording calls for it (0 AI-ready, 10 AI-assist, 0 stays human).
Tasks built on this activity
- Monitor and analyze data from processes and experiments.
- Conduct research, along with life scientists, chemists, and medical scientists, on the engineering aspects of the biological systems of humans and animals.
- Design or conduct follow-up experimentation, based on generated data, to meet established process objectives.
- Conduct research to develop new and improved chemical manufacturing processes.
- Develop computer models of chemical processes.
- Research new materials to be used for products, such as implanted artificial organs.
