The very top of both distributions is dominated by professionally-protected fields (medicine, dentistry, law) — categories where licensing requirements create labor-market frictions that AI alone cannot dissolve. The middle of the distribution is where AI exposure is highest. Pay projections without this distinction overstate aggregate AI risk and understate within-occupation polarization.
