Stanford HAI dashboards show employment in AI-exposed jobs down over 4% this year

Stanford HAI's Digital Economy Lab launched monthly 'AI Economic Indicators' dashboards in June 2026 to track AI's real-time footprint on jobs, wages, and adoption—where official statistics only confirm change after the fact.

Key findings: employment in AI-exposed jobs like software development and customer service has dropped more than 4% this year, and occupations reliant on AI automation show slowing or shrinking job growth. The project pulls data from private companies, academics, and government agencies into three dashboards covering employment/wages, aggregate outcomes, and consumer surplus.

The goal: separate hype from genuine economic change for what may be the fastest-adopted technology ever.
