Abstract

fetched live from OpenAlex

Information Technology (IT) has been identified as a driver of productivity. Despite tremendous advances in IT and its extensive adoption, productivity gains in developed economies have fluctuated. One area of IT that has received much attention recently is Artificial Intelligence (AI). Artificial intelligence as a recognized discipline is almost seventy years old and we are now at the point where forty per cent of the global workforce is exposed to artificial intelligence. Much of this artificial intelligence is not meant to perform cognitive tasks, rather it is meant to augment the task of the user. We now stand on the edge of possibly huge increases in productivity due to the impact of Generative AI. Generative AI’s capabilities are engineered to perform cognitive tasks. As such, Generative AI is meant to complement the user. While much has been written about the anticipated growth in productivity due to Generative AI, not as much has been written about the potential impact on global employment. This paper reviews the relationship between IT and productivity and the potential impact of Generative AI on employment. While Generative AI has the potential to complement knowledge workers with higher education and skills, there is a danger of displacing some workers without such education and skills.

Full frame distilled prediction

Teacher imitation

Not calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)

The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.

Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
