Business Churn, Labor Intensity, and the Minimum Wage
Published in W.E. Upjohn Institute Working Paper 19-298, 2019
Seattle’s minimum wage increased business exit rates and caused newly opened businesses to become less labor-intensive, while surviving businesses increased labor costs without decreasing hours or revenue.
Minimum Wage Increases and Low-Wage Employment: Evidence from Seattle
Published in AEJ: Economic Policy (2022), 2022
Seattles minimum wage increases to $11 (2015) and $13 (2016) reduced aggregate hours in low-wage jobs and significantly reduced hours for less-experienced workers, with aggregate employment elasticities in the range of -0.2 to -2.0.
Boundary Discontinuity Methods and Policy Spillovers
Published in Journal of Public Economics (2024), 2024
Estimated spillover impacts from local minimum wage increases on wages and hours are statistically significant and geographically diffuse, creating concern for standard boundary discontinuity estimates even using non-adjacent control regions.

Generative AI and the Temporary Upskilling of Knowledge Workers
Published in Nature Human Behaviour (2026), 2024
BCG consultants with ChatGPT access scored 49, 20, and 18 percentage points higher than controls on data science tasks — but showed no improvement when tested without AI afterward, revealing the gains are temporary and reliant on continued AI use.
AI Competence as Human Capital
Published in , 2025
Generative AI can raise productivity, but realized gains depend on how workers use the tool. We study AI competence as a form of human capital defined by the practical ability to organize work with a model, evaluate its output, and retain judgment while using it to extend one’s existing skills. In a preregistered lab-in-the-field experiment, 332 full-time management consultants whose jobs did not routinely require coding were assigned a difficult Python data-analysis task with or without access to a Gen AI tool. AI access increased scores by 34 percentage points, raised completion by 7 percentage points, reduced time on the task by 12%, and improved debugging efficiency. We open the black box of these gains by combining Gen AI transcripts, code-execution logs, task outputs, and surveys. Using an ethnography-inspired agentic coding procedure, we identify nine distinct AI-collaboration practices that capture how workers frame requests, decompose problems, rely on generated code, edit independently, verify outputs, and manage scope. These practices explain substantial heterogeneity in overall performance. Gains concentrate when workers engage proactively with AI while retaining substantive judgment. Finally, we show that productivity gains and workers’ interpretation of those gains are distinct. AI access does not significantly increase average confidence, trust, enjoyment, or behavioral trust in AI, and belief responses vary substantially by gender and prior coding experience. The results suggest that firms should treat AI training as human-capital investment, teaching workers not only how to prompt, but how to divide labor with AI, evaluate its output, and build confidence in using it well.
Algorithmic Writing Assistance on Jobseekers’ Resumes Increases Hires
Published in Management Science (2025), 2025
In a field experiment with nearly half a million jobseekers, algorithmic writing assistance on resumes increased hires by 8%, with no evidence that employers were less satisfied — suggesting better writing helps employers ascertain ability rather than distorting signals.
Workers Response to Price Uncompetitiveness: Evidence from a Field Experiment
Published in , 2025
A platform minimum wage experiment shows workers with binding price floors saw 30% lower job-finding probability but 9% higher conditional wages. They lowered search intensity and were more likely to exit the platform rather than shifting to uncovered jobs.
Putting AI on the Org Chart: Evidence on Delegation and Oversight
Published in , 2025
In a randomized experiment of senior managers, we find that framing AI as an employee rather than a tool reduces managers oversight and shifts their perceived accountability away from themselves — but only in firms that have already formally institutionalized AI agents on their org charts.
Generative AI and Labor Market Matching Efficiency
Published in , 2025
Employers randomly offered AI-written job post drafts were 19% more likely to post, but there was no increase in matches — wasting jobseeker time. Per-post loss to jobseeker welfare is six times larger than the gain to employer welfare from time saving.
The Diminishing Returns to Human Recruiting in Online Labor Markets
Published in , 2025
In a randomized experiment with 83,017 job posts, human recruiting assistants generated more applications and interviews but did not improve hire rates — and treated employers spent 10% less on hires, suggesting worse matches.
Why You Shouldn’t Treat AI Agents Like Employees
Published in Harvard Business Review (2026), 2026
As organizations experiment with placing AI agents on org charts as “employees,” new research shows this framing has unintended consequences. In a large-scale experiment, anthropomorphizing AI reduced individual accountability, increased unnecessary escalation, lowered review quality, and heightened employee uncertainty about their roles—without improving adoption. The findings suggest the core challenge is not whether to deploy agentic AI, but how to redesign workflows, roles, and governance so humans remain clearly accountable while effectively supervising increasingly capable systems.
