Computers Usage and Labour Market: a Parallelism with Artificial Intelligence

Abstract

This study will focus on the effects that technology, concretely computers, have on employment levels and wages of employees depending the sector of activity they work on and which kind of tasks they develop. EUKlems data will be analysed to extract these conclusions to contrast it with the theoretical background that exists on this topic of computers’ usage and the consequences on labour market such as (Murnane, Autor and Levy, 2003) who have published some articles of studying this issue. As Artificial Intelligence is based on actual software and electronic devices, it is possible to forecast how artificial intelligence will affect labour market wages and employment levels of different sectors of the economy on developed economies.
