Comment by Anna Kovner

Research director at the Federal Reserve Bank of Richmond, writing on AI and the labor market.
For now, it seems likely that AI will reshape jobs rather than eliminate them. AI is unlikely to perform all job tasks, even in occupations exposed to AI. Yet we cannot be complacent. Transformative technologies always have winners and losers, and one lesson of trade liberalization was that some workers proved less adaptive and were unable to replace high-quality jobs.
