Technological anxiety is at least as old as the industrial revolution, so the rapid development of generative artificial intelligence (genAI) products has spurred research and analysis on the impact this technology will have on labor markets. In chapters in a new book, researchers examine how the structure of tasks can facilitate or impede the adoption of genAI, how workers of different types choose to use genAI, and where workers are likely to look for jobs if they are displaced from their work due to genAI. GenAI will likely widen the “cone of automation” by substituting for labor in more complex work or in work that occurs less frequently, the authors conclude.Technological anxiety is at least as old as the industrial revolution, so the rapid development of generative artificial intelligence (genAI) products has spurred research and analysis on the impact this technology will have on labor markets.
