Stanford HAI launches AI economic indicators dashboard to track AI's real-time impact on the labor market
The Stanford HAI Digital Economy Lab launched a set of monthly dashboards called AI Economic Indicators in June 2026 to track AI's economic footprint in real time. Data shows that employment in AI-exposed occupations such as software development and customer service has fallen by more than 4% this year, and employment of young workers aged 22 to 25 in these fields has declined by more than 3% annually since ChatGPT was released in November 2022, with the decline widening to 4.4% in recent months. The dashboard integrates statistics from private companies, academic institutions, and government data, and is divided into the Transformation Tracker, which monitors 12 macroeconomic indicators; the Canaries Dashboard, which provides early warnings based on ADP Research payroll data; and the Adoption Monitor, which uses surveys to track generative AI adoption rates.
