The paper titled "How will Language Modelers like ChatGPT Affect Occupations and Industries?" presents a methodology to assess the extent to which occupations, industries, and geographies are exposed to advances in AI language modeling capabilities. The authors find that the top occupations exposed to language modeling include telemarketers and post-secondary teachers in fields such as English language and literature, foreign language and literature, and history. The top industries exposed to advances in language modeling are legal services and securities, commodities, and investments. The research by Goldfarb et al. (2020) shows that adoption of AI is relatively high in some industries such as information technology and finance, but low in others such as health care and construction. The effect of AI on work is likely to be multi-faceted and vary across industries.
