Drivers of disruption? Estimating the Uber effect (2018, background): “In particular, a number of studies document that computer technology has substituted for workers performing routine tasks, leading to downward pressure on employment and wages in routine jobs (Autor and Dorn, 2013; Berger and Frey, 2016).”
A strategic framework for artificial intelligence in marketing (2020, background): “…on algorithms (e.g., Bauer and Jannach 2018; Davis and Marcus 2015), psychology (e.g., Lee et al. 2018; Leung et al. 2018), societal effects (e.g., Autor and Dorn 2013; Frey and Osborne 2017), and managerial implications (e.g., Huang et al. 2019) to explore what those literatures can tell us…”
The Growing Importance of Social Skills in the Labor Market (2017, methodology): “I made edits to the Autor and Dorn (2013) Occ1990dd Occupation System to:”
The future of employment: How susceptible are jobs to computerisation? (2017, methodology): “As robot costs decline and technological capabilities expand, robots can thus be expected to gradually substitute for labour in a wide range of low-wage service occupations, where most US job growth has occurred over the past decades (Autor and Dorn, 2013).”
A Model of Secular Stagnation (2014, background): “…for a large segment of the labor force - could show up as increase in income inequality among the working-age population, lowering the real interest rate in the manner described here (for evidence on labor market polarization, see e.g. Autor and Dorn (2013) and Goos, Manning and Salomons (2009)).”
Automation and the Welfare State: Technological Change as a Determinant of Redistribution Preferences (2019, methodology): “These agricultural, supervisory, and residual occupational groups are also excluded by Goos, Manning, and Salomons (2014); Autor and Dorn (2013); and Autor, Dorn, and Hanson (2015).”
Reflections on societal and business model transformation arising from digitization and big data analytics: A research agenda (2015, background): “…the rapid advances in artificial intelligence drive ‘machinefor-human’ substitution to diffuse into domains that are highly complex requiring cognitive activities that have traditionally required high skill levels (Autor and Dorn, 2013; Brynjolfsson and McAfee, 2014, 2011; Frey and Osborne, 2013).”
The Persistence of Local Joblessness (2018, methodology): “This geographical scheme was originally developed by Tolbert and Sizer (1996) and recently popularized by Autor and Dorn (2013) and Autor et al. (2013) .”
Labor-Market Polarization over the Business Cycle (2015, unknown): “Examples of empirical and theoretical work on polarization include Autor, Levy, and Murnane (2003); Autor, Katz, and Kearney (2008); Goos, Manning, and Salomons (2009); Autor (2010); Acemoglu and Autor (2011); and Autor and Dorn (2013).”
The Impact of Chinese Import Competition on the Local Structure of Employment and Wages: Evidence from France (2017, unknown): “Instead most papers on the topic focus on the impact of globalization on job-polarization, that is the disproportional growth of employment in occupations traditionally located at the bottom and top of the wage distribution (see e.g. Autor and Dorn (2013) and Autor et al. (2015)).”
The Real Effect of Smoking Bans: Evidence from Corporate Innovation (2018, background): “A large literature in labor economics has established that skilled labor such as inventors are more mobile than unskilled labor (Oded and Bloom, 1985; Autor and Dorn, 2013), which supports the relocation channel.”
The comparative advantage of cities (2020, unknown): “31 Autor and Dorn (2013) rank occupations by their skill level according to their mean log wage.”
