This is the single most important paper to come out in tech in recent weeks. Erik Brynjolfsson, Bharat Chandar and Ruyu Chen investigated whether generative AI is leading to job losses in roles most exposed to AI – and how these effects differ by age and the way AI is used. In this episode, I break down these results and their implications.

I covered:

(01:17) Key finding

(03:32) What’s going on here?

(06:13) A canary in the coal mine?

(8:21) The dataset studied and why it matters

(10:34) The sectors impacted and why it matters

(12:37) Why don't firms just reduce salaries?

(14:34) Historical parallels with electricity

(17:20) How leadership impacts job losses

(20:46) Implications for policy, education, equity

(24:53) Outro
