OECD Employment Outlook 2023
Artificial Intelligence and the Labour Market
The 2023 edition of the OECD Employment Outlook examines the latest labour market developments in OECD countries. It focuses, in particular, on the evolution of labour demand and widespread shortages, as well as on wage developments in times of high inflation and related policies. It also takes stock of the current evidence on the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on the labour market. Progress in AI has been such that, in many areas, its outputs have become almost indistinguishable from that of humans, and the landscape continues to change quickly, as recent developments in large language models have shown. This, combined with the falling costs of developing and adopting AI systems, suggests that OECD countries may be on the verge of a technological revolution that could fundamentally change the workplace. While there are many potential benefits from AI, there are also significant risks that need to be urgently addressed, despite the uncertainty about the short- to medium-term evolution of AI. This edition investigates how to get the balance right in addressing the possible negative effects of AI on labour market outcomes while not stifling its benefits.

코로나19 이후 노동시장은 견고한 회복 추세가 지속되고 있으나, 2022년과 2023년 초 경기 침체 속에서 그 모멘텀이 축소되는 양상을 보이고 있다. 그러나, 고용과 실업은 안정적 추세가 이어지고 있으며, 빈 일자리율은 대부분 국가에서 일부 완화 징후에도 불구하고 여전히 높게 유지되고 있다. 2023년 5월기준, OECD 평균 실업률은 지난 10년간 가장 낮은 수준인 4.8% (계절조정치) 까지 감소하였다.
