Verified: Elon University’s 2014 survey credit page attributes this sentence to Joel Halpern, and the omitted words in the middle are “from automated operational technologies such as implied by the question,” making the user’s excerpt a faithful ellipsis. The main survey page repeats the same wording and attribution. ([elon.edu](https://www.elon.edu/u/imagining/surveys/vi-2014/2025-internet-ai-robotics/credit/))

Web search confirms this is from Joel Halpern (Ericsson distinguished engineer) in the 2014 Pew Research/Elon University survey "AI, Robotics, and the Future of Jobs" — matches the source URL. The [...] truncation preserves the meaning; full text: "in terms of the direct job destruction, creation, and disruption from automated operational technologies such as implied by the question will likely be negative in terms of numbers of jobs." Year (2014) is correct. Vote alignment is correct: Halpern's "against" matches statement "AI will create more jobs than it destroys" — quote expresses net job loss. Could not WebFetch the source URL (HTTP 403) but search results explicitly cite the quote from this survey.
