Podcasts about labor market

Wyatt Thomson of OpenAI speaks with economists Tyler Cowen and Alex Tabarrok about AI, labor markets, and the future of economic growth. The conversation explores one of the most common fears surrounding AI: that increasingly capable systems will eliminate jobs. Cowen and Tabarrok argue instead that economic growth remains the key variable. Throughout history, productivity-enhancing technologies have transformed work, created new industries, and expanded living standards, even as they disrupted existing jobs and institutions. They discuss automation, comparative advantage, inequality, education, healthcare, energy, and the kinds of work that may become more valuable in an AI-driven economy. Along the way, they examine longer-term questions about abundance, ownership, AI agents, and how societies can adapt to rapid technological change.   Resources: Follow Tyler on X: https://x.com/tylercowen Follow Alex on X: https://x.com/ATabarrok Follow Wyatt on X: https://x.com/dataWyatt   Stay Updated:Find a16z on YouTube: YouTubeFind a16z on XFind a16z on LinkedInListen to the a16z Show on SpotifyListen to the a16z Show on Apple PodcastsFollow our host: https://twitter.com/eriktorenberg Please note that the content here is for informational purposes only; should NOT be taken as legal, business, tax, or investment advice or be used to evaluate any investment or security; and is not directed at any investors or potential investors in any a16z fund. a16z and its affiliates may maintain investments in the companies discussed.

Yerbol Orynbayev, former governor of the World bank, discusses the labor market and current overall economy. He says the health sector currently has strong demand as AI technology changes hiring in that industry and others. Yerbol calls the current labor market highly unusual because of the transitions tech changes are creating. He also discusses the how it all affects the Fed's road ahead.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Subscribe to the Market Minute newsletter - https://schwabnetwork.com/subscribeDownload the iOS app - https://apps.apple.com/us/app/schwab-network/id1460719185Download the Amazon Fire Tv App - https://www.amazon.com/TD-Ameritrade-Network/dp/B07KRD76C7Watch on Sling - https://watch.sling.com/1/asset/191928615bd8d47686f94682aefaa007/watchWatch on Vizio - https://www.vizio.com/en/watchfreeplus-exploreWatch on DistroTV - https://www.distro.tv/live/schwab-network/Follow us on X – https://twitter.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/schwabnetworkFollow us on LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/company/schwab-network/ About Schwab Network - https://schwabnetwork.com/about

But a closer look reveals most gains came from leisure, hospitality, healthcare, and local government, while small businesses continue to pull back on hiring plans. This analysis breaks down what's driving job growth, why small business concerns matter, and whether today's strong headline numbers tell the full story about the labor market.

Julia Regier is a policy and research manager at MIT's Stone Center on Inequality and Shaping the Future of Work, where she focuses on workforce and policy impacts. Her path here was anything but straight, from studying philosophy at Wellesley to an MBA at Yale to translating dense economics research for people who don't speak economics. We talk about what the data shows for workers without college degrees (spoiler: it's not great, and it's been getting worse since 1980), why the self-checkout AI surveillance story is a perfect case study in automation gone wrong, and what it would take to redirect AI development toward something that works for workers, not just around them. We also get into the market failure at the heart of how AI is being built, why a handful of people setting the vision for all of us is a problem, and what policy levers could shift things. Julia also makes the moral case, loud and clear, for a living wage, and we're here for it.

Matt Miskin cautions that beneath the surface of a blowout JOLTS report — including a two-year high in job openings. However, stagnant hiring and quit rates reveal a labor market far looser than headlines suggest. He argues that ongoing fiscal stimulus is acting as a sugar rush for the economy, and that the Fed may lean on bond vigilantes rather than rate hikes to tighten conditions.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

Today from SDPB - an event around Missing and Murdered Indigenous People month, a look at the labor market and more.

The labor market is shifting to a low-hire, low-fire environment, with Jordan Shapiro noting reduced mobility is weighing on wage growth as inflation outpaces pay. Companies are prioritizing long-term hiring quality over speed, supporting margins but limiting worker leverage. In a tighter job market, employees may need a more data-driven approach to maintain compensation.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

P.M. Edition for May 8. The U.S. economy added 115,00 jobs in April, beating analyst expectations for the second month in a row. WSJ economics reporter Chao Deng explains how this could be a turning point for the labor market–and what that means for the Federal Reserve. Plus, the Virginia Supreme Court threw out Democrats' efforts at redistricting ahead of the midterm elections. We hear from Journal national political reporter Ken Thomas about how this could affect Democrats' chances at retaking the House. And we're exclusively reporting that Intel will supply some chips for Apple devices—a deal that could be huge for the chipmaker's attempt to turn around its business. Alex Ossola hosts.

The last year has seen the U.S. labor market enter a challenging position. Layoffs at major companies like Amazon, Microsoft and Verizon have put more people out of work while costs of living are rising. The fashion industry wasn't spared. Saks Global is laying off 16% of its workforce, and other major fashion brands, like H&M and Nike, have made staff cuts. For people just entering the fashion industry, it's a daunting proposition. On this week's Glossy Podcast, senior fashion reporter Danny Parisi spoke with Keith Fraley, a professor of fashion business management, about the challenges facing new graduates and others seeking entry-level roles in the fashion industry. One of the biggest changes Fraley has seen is that the training period for new employees is much shorter than it used to be. "The businesses are expecting immediate contribution from their new hires," Fraley said. "And before you can contribute, you need to show that you know what the job entails, that you understand how the business makes money, because they want to see people making an impact in their role relatively quickly after they're hired." Fraley has seen far more students who are interested in the creative side of the business, including design and product development, taking more business-oriented classes. That reflects a shift in the labor market, where more applicants are competing for fewer openings and need more ways to demonstrate their value and versatility. One of the most pressing concerns in fashion employment is AI. A recent Vogue Busines survey of 300 current and aspiring fashion workers found that only 32% of students feel positive about the role that AI will play in their careers. Most believe that AI will further reduce the number of available jobs. Fraley was more optimistic, while acknowledging the concern. "Repetitive tasks, basic analysis might be automated," Fraley said. "But that will just increase demand for strategic thinking and creative interpretation. I don't think AI will replace many fashion roles, but it will certainly reshape them."

The latest jobs report came in stronger than expected, challenging growing fears that the economy is starting to crack.Chuck Zodda and Mike Armstrong break down why hiring remains surprisingly resilient despite slowing growth, rising inflation pressure, and continued concern around AI-driven job disruption.Also covered:Why the unemployment rate rose even with solid job creationThe hidden demographic shift reshaping the labor marketWhy transportation and freight activity are suddenly surgingHow rising prices are eating away at consumer spending powerWhy the Michigan Consumer Sentiment survey may no longer be usefulThe growing debate over whether AI is distorting the economyHow cybersecurity risks are accelerating as AI tools become more powerfulWhy SpaceX's upcoming IPO could reshape markets and index investingWhy the economy may be stronger — and stranger — than many investors expected.

As the S&P 500 (SPX) looks to close out a 6th straight winning week, Adam Coons joins Nicole Petallides to discuss the state of the U.S. economy. He weighs in on the April jobs report, saying "the economy is doing just fine" and coming out of the post-pandemic over-hiring. Adam says AI might be a scapegoat for some job cuts. On the earnings front, he says momentum is "backed by real revenue and real earnings" which separates the AI rally from dot-com bubble decades earlier. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

The labor market remains resilient, with strength expanding beyond services into manufacturing, according to Brian Jacobsen. He argues the data likely keeps the Fed on pause, while highlighting a growing inflation divide across income groups and why long‑term fundamentals—not “Sell in May” seasonality—will drive markets through recent volatility.======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.

What if the story we're being told about AI's inevitability is hiding something underneath?That's the question Jessica Parker and Kimberly Becker put to George K. on their podcast, Women Talking ‘Bout AI.This conversation is a replay from their feed. It followed the money: the special purpose vehicles, the obfuscatory financing, the concentration of risk in a handful of companies and a single island in the Taiwan Strait. But what they kept arriving at wasn't really a financial question. It was a human one.Who has skin in the game? And what happens to the rest of us when the people building this technology can't answer what outcome they're actually trying to produce?The conversation covers why the dot-com analogy is the wrong frame for the current investment craze, why an AI crash could starve the narrow applications that actually work, and why the "everything machine" promise was probably never going to pay for itself.It also gets into what chatbot tutors get wrong about teaching, why we keep analogizing ourselves to whatever technology we just built, and what it might mean that generalists could be the ones who come out of this ahead.The kind of conversation where you leave with more questions than you came in with. Which is exactly what we're after.

Is the AI job apocalypse real—or just hype?In this episode of the Futures Edge, Jim Iuorio and Bobby Iaccino sit down with investor and author Jared Dillian to break down what AI actually means for jobs, markets, and the economy. While headlines predict massive job losses, Jared argues that tech revolutions take time—and often create more opportunities than they destroy.They also get into whether the market is showing dot-com bubble signs, what's really driving inflation, where the Fed may be getting it wrong, and where smart money is moving right now. Jared shares how he's thinking about investing today—including why he's focused on commodities, energy, and international markets over crowded tech trades.If you're trying to understand the AI boom and where markets go next, this is a grounded, no-nonsense conversation.Timestamps: 00:00 Introduction and Guest Introduction01:12 Sponsors and Upcoming Events02:11 AI Replacing Jobs: Immediate Impact or Long-Term Process?03:03 Historical Perspective on Technological Disruptions04:01 Self-Employment and AI: New Opportunities05:20 Wealth Concentration and AI-Driven Business Models08:06 Market Valuations and Bubble Indicators13:04 Comparing Current Market to 2000 Dot-Com Bubble16:42 Geopolitical Risks and Oil Prices20:04 Labor Market Strength and Economic Data22:33 Is the Market Rally Real or a Bubble?27:59 Investment Opportunities: Energy, Commodities, and International Stocks34:05 Best Ways to Invest in Commodities and Emerging Markets38:03 AI and Tech Stocks: Are We About to Surge?45:49 Labor Market and Economic Outlook47:26 Closing Remarks and Book PromotionFollow along on social media: Twitter:    https://x.com/bob_iaccinoTwitter:   https://x.com/jimiuorioLinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/bob-iaccino/LinkedIn:   https://www.linkedin.com/in/james-iuorio/Newsletter:  http://theunfilteredinvestor.com/This episode is sponsored by: Independence Ark: https://www.independenceark.com/Code: F U AmerGold https://www.amergold.com/Code; F U

The US economy looks great on paper: high GDP, low unemployment, and booming markets. So why does it feel like the system is broken for so many people? To unpack the disconnect between macroeconomic data and everyday financial anxiety, we're joined by Chicago Booth professor Steve Kaplan. A staunch defender of the free market, Kaplan argues that despite our collective pessimism, American capitalism is actually delivering unprecedented prosperity. Are we just looking at the data wrong, or is the market failing us? From the staggering costs of the US healthcare system to the lasting scars of the China labor shock, we debate the deepest fractures in our modern economic framework. Recorded alongside the Stigler Center's economic conference "Can Capitalism Be Popular?" the conversation covers how to actually measure an economic system, the U.S. vs. Europe debate, the opioid crisis, health care lock-in, teachers' unions, UBI, and the core tension of the whole show: if capitalism is working, why doesn't it feel that way?

Shownotes The forever costs of America's war on Iran could disfigure economic life for generations to come, around the world and in the United States. In an earlier era, war spending helped pull the United States out of the Great Depression by pulling unemployed farmers into the cities and retraining them for manufacturing. Even through the Cold War, many Americans viewed war spending as a major driver of high-quality manufacturing jobs and consumer well-being. The war economy since 9/11 has been different. The wars themselves drive antidemocratic currents and undermine well-being even for people, like most Americans, who are far from the battlefields. These wars also undermine economic life in less obvious ways, like incentivizing endless private sector investment in defense rather than more productive industries. Eamon Kircher-Allen joins Order from Ashes to explain the profound distortions of the modern American war economy. Inflation and a possible recession are only the most immediate economic costs of the Iran war. As the forever wars after 9/11 proved, runaway war spending disfigures every aspect of the economy. The true long-term costs of this war will be much higher than the price of military operations.

For decades, Americans were promised that a college degree guaranteed a secure spot in the middle class. But instead of entering corporate management, many graduates are finding themselves trapped in low-paying service roles with crippling debt. Is this widening gap between expectations and financial realities fundamentally reshaping the modern American workforce? New York Times reporter Noam Scheiber joins the podcast to unpack the core arguments of his new book “Mutiny: The Rise and Revolt of the College-Educated Working Class” about this labor shift. He argues that the psychological injury of these broken promises is sparking a unique wave of workplace activism.  The systemic failure of the college wage premium poses urgent questions for the future of American capitalism. If millions of highly educated citizens feel cheated by the system, the resulting political and economic destabilization could be severe.  Subscribe to our Youtube Channel Follow Capitalisn't on Instagram & TikTok Send us your questions or comments by emailing capitalisntpod@gmail.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this episode, Liz Ann Sonders and Collin Martin discuss recent market volatility, highlighting a sharp equity rally following news of a temporary ceasefire abroad. Liz Ann cautions that the dramatic, short‑term swings across asset classes reflect an increasingly “casino‑like” mentality in markets, where trading and speculation often blur with long‑term investing.  Turning to fixed income, Collin reviews heightened volatility in Treasury yields and shifting expectations for Federal Reserve policy. While markets have begun to price in the possibility of a rate cut later this year, Collin notes that Schwab's outlook remains largely unchanged: The Fed is likely to stay on hold for some time, and long‑term Treasury yields may remain in a relatively stable range. He underscores that for long‑term investors, modest daily moves in yields should not drive portfolio decisions, reinforcing the role bonds play as part of a broader investment strategy rather than a tactical trade. Then, Liz Ann is joined by Nela Richardson, chief economist at ADP, who offers a nuanced view of the U.S. labor market using high‑frequency payroll data. Richardson describes today's labor market as solid but lacking dynamism, with job growth highly concentrated in health care due to aging demographics. She also explores how artificial intelligence is reshaping work—not by eliminating entire jobs, but by transforming individual tasks—often augmenting higher‑skill roles while automating simpler ones.  Finally, Collin and Liz Ann discuss which key economic data to watch in the coming weeks.

Send us Fan MailWireless Festival gets cancelled and the easy headline is to blame Kanye West, but that story is too neat. I talk through what's actually happening behind the scenes: government pressure, visa power, sponsor risk, and the uncomfortable truth that “cancel culture” doesn't land equally. Kanye's antisemitic statements and harmful comments about slavery still matter, and I'm clear about impact, accountability, and why mental health can be context without becoming a free pass.From there, I widen the lens to the world of work, because the same inconsistency shows up in who gets protected, who gets forgiven, and who gets left behind. We touch on the United Nations recognising transatlantic slavery as the gravest crime against humanity, what that means for education, and why reparations keeps hovering in the background of every conversation about fairness in the UK.Then we get practical. AI adoption is becoming workplace literacy, and if women and especially Black women are slower to get access, encouragement, and confidence, the gender pay gap risks gaining a new layer. I also break down what layoffs at KPMG and Oracle signal about today's labour market, why offers can be rescinded, and why you should not resign without a signed contract and start date. We finish on culture and confidence: high-end Nigerian restaurant closures, Angel Reese choosing to be valued, and how I'm building Sister Scribble around intentional planning and owning your narrative.Subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more of us can navigate work, power, and change with our eyes open.Sponsorships - Email me:  hello@toyatalks.comTikTok:  toya_washington Twitter: @toya_w (#ToyaTalksPodcast) Snapchat: @toyawashington Instagram: @toya_washington & @toya_talkshttps://toyatalks.com/Music (Intro and Outro) Written and created by Nomadic StarStationary Company: Sistah ScribbleInstagram: @sistahscribbleWebsite: www.sistahscribble.com Email: hello@sistahscribble.com

The March Jobs Report is in, and while the headline numbers look solid, a closer look shows signs the labor market may be slowing. In this episode of Real Estate News for Investors, host Kathy Fettke breaks down the latest data from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, including job growth, unemployment, and wage trends. You'll also hear thoughts from Zillow's chief economist, Orphe Divounguy, who says the report may not be as strong as it appears. We cover what's really happening beneath the surface—from slowing hiring and rising discouraged workers to cooling wage growth—and what it could mean for inflation, interest rates, and the Federal Reserve's next move. Tune in to understand what this jobs report means for the housing market—and your investment strategy.

Corporate profits are booming. So why haven't most workers gotten a raise? For decades, we've been told a simple story: work harder, become more productive, and your wages will follow. But what if that story was never really true? This week, Nick and Goldy talk to Arindrajit Dube—one of the most influential economists shaping how we understand wages, and author of a new book, The Wage Standard: What's Wrong in the Labor Market and How to Fix It —for a conversation that cuts to the heart of how pay actually works in America. At a moment when the gap between what the economy produces and what workers take home keeps growing, this episode challenges some of the most fundamental assumptions in economics—and asks what it would take to build a labor market that actually delivers for working people. Because if wages aren't just set by “the market”… then they can be changed. Arin Dube is an economist at the University of Massachusetts Amherst and one of the leading researchers on wages and labor markets. He is the author of The Wage Standard: What's Wrong in the Labor Market and How to Fix It, and has advised policymakers in the U.S. and internationally on minimum wage policy and labor market dynamics.

New York Fed President John Williams says monetary policy is “really well positioned” for the Fed to “wait and see” on the economic consequences of war in Iran. Williams also comments on his view of the US economy and labor market and the issue of continuity at the Federal Open Market Committee. He speaks with Bloomberg's Michael McKeeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Almost four hundred thousand American workers dropped out of the labor force in March, setting yet a new low in labor participation. Why? There are no jobs, a fact confirmed by both the employment estimate plus an utterly dismal hiring rate from JOLTS, one that rivaled January and February 2009. There's more, too. S&P Global said the services sector contracted for the first time in three years last month and a decline in its employment index, showing how the oil price shock is already starting to sting. Eurodollar University's conversations w/Steve Van Metre-------------------------------------------------------------In a world where markets swing on every headline, focus matters.

The Inside Economics crew (minus Dr. DeAntonio) parses the March jobs report, which came in surprisingly strong. They all agree that the headline number is deceptive and the labor market is actually quite weak and poised to weaken further in the wake of the conflict in the Middle East. Mark unveils his new take on the Sahm Rule indicator, which points to a surprising conclusion. The stats game is back (and not going anywhere), and the team takes several good listener questions.  Email us at InsideEconomics@moodys.com for more info about the Moody's Summit '26 Conference in San Diego Hosts: Mark Zandi – Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, Cris deRitis – Deputy Chief Economist, Moody's Analytics, and Marisa DiNatale – Senior Director - Head of Global Forecasting, Moody's Analytics Follow Mark Zandi on 'X' and BlueSky @MarkZandi, Cris deRitis on LinkedIn, and Marisa DiNatale on LinkedIn Questions or Comments, please email us at InsideEconomics@moodys.com.
