🚨 New paper alert, with @johnjhorton.bsky.social! Using an experiment run on a large online labor market, we provide evidence that providing employers access to an AI-written first draft of a job post harms the efficiency of the market. emmawiles.github.io/storage/jobo...

gave Claude Code (wow!) some work to do writing documentation. It fixed up a file "survey.py" then got interrupted and lost the context. When it went back, it started again with "survey.py" and said...

Models you can run on @expectedparrot.bsky.social (w/ just one key); we also hit each one daily to make sure it's not deprecated/down and create this report: www.expectedparrot.com/getting-star...

With E[P] you can run jobs locally using your own API keys for LLMs, or use our key which comes with $25 in credits. Toggle on "help me" and we'll dig into any issues with your surveys and experiments and help you fix them!

Sloan Foundation announced a program to support postdocs in philosophy, sociology, and metascience who want to understand how AI will affect science. Pass it along to anyone who might be interested, the Institute for Complex Social Dynamics might be interested in hosting sloan.org/programs/dig...

I just posted the exact same thing on twitter and here & got way more engagement here despite having probably 7x the followers. Twitter really is cooked huh?

This is very cool & the point is push the model to its limits, but specifying this kind of complex flow is quite easy with github.com/expectedparr... - short thread 1/n

What seems to be going on here is that (a) more people in student sample played exact EV in mirror than in lottery & (b) distributions are *both* roughly symmetric around EV. You can see why w/ means it looks PT-ish (& also at other quantiles). FWIW, I think everyone should CTFO & let Oprea respond

How is AI reshaping labor market opportunity, and for whom? Join us on 1/21 to hear from @johnjhorton.bsky.social, @sendhil.bsky.social and @lindseyrraymond.bsky.social about their latest research findings and insights, chaired by David Autor. Register: shapingwork.mit.edu/events/align... #EconSky

1/ My co-author @mitchwatt.bsky.social is on the #EconJobMarket this year. Mitch is an applied theorist interested in market design, IO, and public policy. I happen to know his #JMP and its companion paper very well. 😇 🧵👇 with an overview of both papers. #EconSky
