At Google, McKinnon saw that projects were largely created and led by software engineers, and PMs played a more auxiliary role.

The numbers have prompted AI optimists to predict an economic boom and AI pessimists to worry about a future of fewer jobs. The question isn't how much AI helps out around the office but who it helps — and why. AI, in other words, is raising overall productivity by narrowing the gap between high performers and low performers. Researchers tasked people to write a short story, with and without the help of an AI tool for generating ideas. A few enterprising employers will go all in on hiring job candidates with less experience and boosting their performance with AI.

In the midst of a wave of wholesale layoffs, many tech workers are somehow bouncing back stronger than ever. Ayas and her colleagues analyzed the fate of laid-off tech workers by looking at data from Parachute and Layoffs.fyi, both of which compile information provided by out-of-work employees. Today, not only are laid-off tech workers finding jobs quickly, Revelio Labs found, but 52% are actually earning more than they were before. That's not to say that laid-off tech workers will continue to face great job prospects forever. If the layoffs continue, the economy will eventually become oversaturated with tech workers — at which point their job searches will take longer, and more will be forced to accept lower salaries.
