“What I see as a labor economist is we have starved everything to feed one mouth,” says Ron Hetrick, Principal Economist at Lightcast. “These are now three years that we have foregone development in so many industries as we shove food into a mouth that’s already so full.”

Silicon Valley has placed a trillion-dollar bet that gen AI can transform the global economy and pave the way for AGI. But warning signs show the marketing hype has vastly overrated what current AI tech can achieve, creating a bubble with growing costs when it pops, writes @jeremyhsu.bsky.social.
When it all comes crashing down: The aftermath of the AI boom
AI has buoyed the stock market and a struggling US economy but warning signs indicate a bubble that everyone will pay for when it bursts.

Technically there isn't a direct link between these datasets in this paper -- they aggregate BTOS to industry and link on that (and also create a separate form level measure based on previous job postings from lightcast).

In my latest post, I discuss data from @guildeducation.bsky.social and Lightcast on internal mobility.

Despite internal mobility dominating thought leadership, it's fallen in tandem with external turnover since 2022.

Why Do Banks Have So Many VPs? Have you ever wondered "Why is everyone at a bank a Vice President?" In this week's Data Snack by Lightcast, we looked at the data, and it turns out the title “VP” means something very different in finance than it does anywhere else. Here are some insights: 🏧 20% of roles at banks are titled “Vice President”: That’s 13x higher than in other industries. It’s basically the default mid-level title in banking. 🏧 Bank VPs tend to have less experience than VPs in other sectors. 🏧 The career ladder looks different. In banking, it’s VP → Manager → Director → MD. VP is just one stop on a much more compressed hierarchy. 🏧 Despite having fewer years of experience, VPs at banks earn the most out of all VPs across industries. The title may be inflated, but the comp definitely isn’t. 🏧 And finally, salary growth in banking is tightly tied to experience with some interesting caveats.
