Electricity, internal combustion engines, and semiconductors facilitated automation in the last century, but A.I. now seems poised to automate many tasks once thought to […]

Third, occupations […]

    In this article, we survey the recent literature and discuss two contrasting views on the direct and indirectimpacts of automation on employment.
