I know this is Yale and we should all assume they have the right methodology, but i think there are a few things wrong with this study.
1) they’re assuming that every company in the world is using AI aggressively.
Yes, ChatGpT is popular but there are still a LOT of companies that have not adopted AI in the enterprise.
If they wanted to analyze the impact of AI on the labor market, they need to analyze the mix of employees in companies that actually are actively implementing or aggressively using AI.
2) They did not mention how many people they sampled along the unemployed but if its something like 4% or so, the number of software engineers in that sampling is probably pitifully low (ie 10)
Definitely not enough to make a conclusion.
