The EmergingTech Economic Research Network (EERN), an initiative led by the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco in collaboration with the Federal Reserve System Innovation Office, is advancing research into how artificial intelligence is reshaping labor markets. An upcoming event will delve into AI’s influence on workforce development, particularly focusing on its implications for individuals from low- and moderate-income backgrounds. The session will feature a research presentation examining the extent to which workers in economically vulnerable households are exposed to AI-driven changes in job functions and employment structures.
A panel discussion will follow, bringing together workers, leaders in workforce training programs, and employers to discuss how they are preparing for technological shifts and adjusting their strategies accordingly. Participants will explore adaptive measures such as reskilling, hiring practices, and career pathway development in response to automation and intelligent systems.
The event will conclude with a fireside chat led by Mary C. Daly, President and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco, who will share insights on equitable economic advancement in the age of rapid technological transformation.
This gathering, co-hosted with the Federal Reserve Bank of Atlanta, underscores growing institutional interest in ensuring that innovation supports inclusive growth rather than exacerbating inequality.
