While artificial intelligence has caused turbulence in the labor market, the recent decline in job opportunities has more to do with economic uncertainty, experts say.
“As we look across the broader labor market, we see that AI’s impact on the labor market has still been fairly small,” said Cory Stahle, a senior economist at Indeed, a job search site.
“The important asterisk is that that doesn’t mean that it has been zero,” he said.
Mandi Woodruff-Santos, a career coach, agrees: “I don’t think AI is to blame, I think the economic uncertainty is to blame.”
The job market has not been good in recent months, whether you’re looking for a job or currently employed.
