Bonus Episode: Understanding The US Job Numbers And Why Anthropic’s Economic Report Is Misleading
Today I’m publishing a bonus episode with a discussion of the US Job Market and also explain why Anthropic’s new AI-Job destruction research is misleading.
I also discuss the whole idea of “job-task analysis” and why “AI exposure” (Anthropic’s methodology) doesn’t really reflect how AI transforms jobs, companies, and the economy.
Let’s discuss all this at Irresistible 2026 or read my substack article on this topic and we can discuss there.
