AI unboxed and jobs: A novel measure and firm-level evidence from three countries
Engberg, Erik; Görg, Holger; Lodefalk, Magnus; Javed, … - 2023
We unbox developments in artificial intelligence (AI) to estimate how exposure to these developments affect firm-level labour demand, using detailed register data from Denmark, Portugal and Sweden over two decades. Based on data on AI capabilities and occupational work content, We develop and...
