The core duties of this occupation—scheduling, drafting correspondence, managing databases, and transcribing—are fundamentally digital and align perfectly with the capabilities of LLMs and AI agents. While some roles require physical presence for visitor greeting or office management, the vast majority of tasks are routine information processing that can be automated or significantly streamlined, leading to major restructuring and reduced headcount per organization.
