Summary
In a blog post, Banque de France researchers examine the first effects of generative AI on the labour market for young people in France since late 2022. According to their findings, permanent-contract (CDI) hiring of young people has fallen more in occupations whose tasks can most easily be performed or assisted by generative AI. Contract terminations are also decreasing in these occupations. By contrast, total employment at companies reporting intensive use of AI does not differ markedly from that at other companies. The authors conclude that the changes observed occur more through entries into and exits from the labour market than through a visible fall in the total number of employees.
