Show HN: AI Purgatory – how long until AI-exposed workers are back on track (tylerthinking.com)

1 points by orange_joe ↗ HN
I worked up this model as a personal project to help figure out how long AI exposed workers are worse off. As a software engineer, I imagine getting laid off and being incapable of finding new work. It Also showcases the impacts of proposed redistribution mechanisms. This model is meant as a device to consider the impact of AI on workers.

this is all highly speculative so you can play with the knobs yourself.

cool project. i'm not sure about the 65% re-hire rate though. that's from normal layoffs, ff AI hits a whole profession at once, everyone's looking for the same jobs, so i'd guess it's a lot lower
