In a static version where capital is fixed and technology is exogenous, automation reduces employment and the labor … capital accumulation and the direction of research towards automation and the creation of new tasks. If the long-run rental … rate of capital relative to the wage is sufficiently low, the long-run equilibrium involves automation of all tasks …

We summarize a framework for the study of the implications of automation and AI on the demand for labor, wages, and … employment. Our task-based framework emphasizes the displacement effect that automation creates as machines and AI replace labor … counteracted by a productivity effect, resulting from the cost savings generated by automation, which increase the demand for labor …
