Research finds that while generative AI like ChatGPT is reshaping tasks for artists, it has not significantly reduced employment or wages in that sector, and may slightly increase earnings. AI is more augmenting jobs by automating routine parts rather than replacing entire roles.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Other.

◆ The Wire takeaway

You need to rethink how AI affects your workforce: it won't cut jobs wholesale but will shift the tasks your team does. Look for ways to integrate AI to boost creative output without fearing mass layoffs in creative sectors like yours.
