The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Labor Force and Gini Coefficient: An Assessment of some EU/OECD Countries

The question of this study is: “How will the Gini coefficient be affected by the use of artificial intelligence (AI) in a technological society?” Therefore, the discussion of the article focuses on the relationship between AI, labor force, employment, and the Gini coefficient. The article contributed to the literature on the labor force transformation and income distribution effects of AI, where there are study gaps. Within the scope of this article, the transformation of the workforce, employment, and income effects of AI are being researched, discussed, and evaluated. Additionally, the empirical part of the study analyses the relationship between artificial intelligence, Gini coefficient, and labor market variables in EU/OECD countries between 2010 and 2023. Multiple analytical methods were used to ensure the reliability of our empirical approach. The empirical analysis provides strong evidence that the adoption of artificial intelligence in EU/OECD countries has positive effects on the labor market.
