Comment by Torsten Slok
Chief Economist at Apollo Global Management
The same can be said today: AI is everywhere except in the incoming macroeconomic data. Today, you don’t see AI in the employment data, productivity data or inflation data. [...] After three years with ChatGPT and still no signs of AI in the incoming data, it looks like AI will likely be labor enhancing in some sectors rather than labor replacing in all sectors.Verified source (Feb 14, 2026)

The Apollo Academy page at the provided URL, titled "Waiting for the AI J-Curve," is dated February 14, 2026 and attributes the piece to Torsten Slok. It contains the quoted opening sentence, the sentence about employment/productivity/inflation data, and the closing sentence about AI being labor enhancing verbatim; the [...] only omits intervening sentences from the same article. The stored author, date, source URL, and quote are therefore consistent with the source. ([apolloacademy.com](https://www.apolloacademy.com/waiting-for-the-ai-j-curve/))

Disputed
The underlying passage is authentic and appears on Apollo Academy’s February 14, 2026 post by Torsten Slok, but the submitted quote is not strictly verbatim. The source reads: “The same can be said today: AI is everywhere except in the incoming macroeconomic data. Today, you don’t see AI in the employment data, productivity data or inflation data.” It later says: “After three years with ChatGPT and still no signs of AI in the incoming data, it looks like AI will likely be labor enhancing in some sectors rather than labor replacing in all sectors.” So the attribution is correct, but the submitted version omits the lead-in and changes punctuation, meaning it is not an exact verbatim quote.

AI Unverifiable
Source URL (apolloacademy.com) returned HTTP 403, blocking direct fetch. Web search confirms Apollo Chief Economist Torsten Slok stated "AI is everywhere except in the incoming macroeconomic data" and concluded AI will likely be "labor enhancing in some sectors rather than labor replacing in all sectors" in February 2026. Confirmed by Fortune, CNBC, and other outlets. Vote direction (for) is correct since Slok's position is that AI evidence points toward labor enhancement rather than replacement. Year (2026) and author attribution are correct.
