1/3 Today, an anecdote shared by an invited speaker at #NeurIPS2024 left many Chinese scholars, myself included, feeling uncomfortable. As a community, I believe we should take a moment to reflect on why such remarks in public discourse can be offensive and harmful.

Presented some new work on skill innovation at @IC2S2! Show that innovation accelerated for technical skills, so worries about skill obsoletion are not unwarranted. Open-source + big-firm-backing helps skills diffuse. @BCCarrollSchool @StanfordHAI thx @malsobay for the pic

Yann is right. AI isn't about to cause mass unemployment. But it is about to boost productivity causing disruptions to the labor market, with winners and losers. Policymakers, managers, technologist and the rest of us need to manage this transition to create shared prosperity.
If you are worried about "AI causing mass unemployment" listen to economists who have studied the impact of technological revolutions on the labor market, like @erikbryn . DO NOT listen to computer scientists who are concerned by the social consequences of their work.
