Is AI already changing how we work, and are bigger shifts still ahead for labor markets? New research from the International Monetary Fund, drawing on more than 700 million job postings across 110 economies, finds that demand has declined by nearly 10 percent in the occupations most exposed to AI. However, this impact has stabilized even as AI has become more capable. In the United States, AI adoption has risen rapidly but Budget Lab analysis does not yet indicate any large-scale labor market disruption.
Join us for a webinar exploring what the latest evidence tells us about how AI is changing hiring, the skills employers are seeking, and the future of work. The webinar will open with Martha Gimbel (The Budget Lab) sharing the Budget Lab’s latest findings, followed by Divya Kirti (IMF) presenting IMF research. A panel discussion will follow with David Deming (Harvard), Divya Kirti, and Natasha Sarin (The Budget Lab).
