How Does Artificial Intelligence Technology Influence Labor Share: The Role of Labor Structure Upgrading
The rapid development and adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has sparked debates about its implications for labor markets, yet the micro-level relationship between AI and labor share remains underexplored. Based on the theory of skill-biased technological change, this study aims to examine whether AI technology increases labor share by labor structure upgrading at the enterprise level. Using panel data for China’s listed companies from 2012 to 2022, this study tests this relationship using a two-way fixed effects model. The empirical results reveal that AI technology significantly increases labor share, with labor structure upgrading playing a mediating role in this relationship. Heterogeneity analysis reveals that the influence of AI technology on labor share is stronger for enterprises characterized by low labor market rigidity, high labor market supply, and talent policy support in external environments, as well as among labor-intensive, high-tech, and non-state-owned enterprises. Notably, this study finds that advancements in AI technology have achieved mutually beneficial outcomes of improving labor share and enhancing total factor productivity. Our research findings provide detailed empirical evidence for enterprises to formulate and implement AI strategies.

Artificial intelligence (AI) technology has become one of the most frequently discussed subjects in the development of technology in recent years. Due to its incredible pattern recognition, it can help humans complete work much faster than before with little to no monetary cost. Despite the widespread impact that AI technologies have on various fields, acceptance and adoption of AI lag behind because of a wide range of factors among users. This paper outlines the results of a large literature review that attempts to tease out some of these factors by examining individual differences that may impact the acceptance and adoption of AI. This goal was achieved through an exploration of individual differences that play a role in the acceptance and adoption of new technologies more broadly, as well as AI technologies, to gain a more holistic understanding of the factors contributing to the lack of acceptance and adoption of AI. The main goal of this literature review was to find the individual differences (IDs) associated with the acceptance and adoption of AI technology and general technology. A secondary goal was to create a model based on the acceptance of general technology that could assist in future AI technology research, development, and implementation. This paper identifies several IDs that were found to play a role in the adoption and acceptance of AI technology, as well as 15 specific IDs that were commonly shown to play a role in the adoption and acceptance of general technology. Because of the rapid development of AI technologies in recent years, there is a lack of research examining the acceptance and adoption of AI technologies; however, there is a great deal of research examining the broader acceptance and adoption of technology, and there is significant overlap between the studies that examined general technology acceptance and adoption and those that examined AI-specific technology acceptance and adoption. Because of this, we believe that the research on general technology acceptance and adoption can be used as a foundation and inspiration for future research on AI technology in this area.

The development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology has become a major catalyst for digital transformation in Indonesia. However, the accelerated adoption of AI has not been matched by regulatory readiness, especially in the legal and cybersecurity aspects. The national legal framework is still sectoral and has not been able to address the complexity of risks from AI systems implemented in various public and private sectors. This research aims to: (1) identify regulatory weaknesses in monitoring the use of AI in Indonesia; (2) formulate an integrative legal framework between AI regulation and cyber law that is adaptive to technological developments; and (3) provide policy recommendations based on international practices. This research method uses a normative-empirical legal approach with a combination of documentation studies, comparative analysis of international regulations, and semi-structured interviews with experts. The results show that Indonesia experiences significant regulatory gaps, particularly in the application of the principles of transparency, accountability, and AI risk management. Compared to the European Union and the United States, AI regulations in Indonesia are still at the declarative stage without adequate enforcement mechanisms. This study recommends the establishment of a risk-based national legal framework accompanied by the strengthening of independent oversight institutions, AI technical standards, and multi-stakeholder involvement in the regulatory process. These findings are expected to serve as the basis for the development of legal policies that are more adaptive, responsive, and secure to advances in AI technology and the dynamics of cyber threats in Indonesia.

The continuous goal of discovering extraterrestrial life has driven scientific interest in exoplanets—celestial bodies orbiting stars outside our solar system. Traditional methods of exoplanet detection, reliant on manual analysis and prone to human error, presented unavoidable challenges given the vastness of the universe. This paper aims to discuss the benefits and limitations of AI within the exoplanet detection field, and determine whether the highly-regarded artificial intelligence is as beneficial to astronomical fields as we think. With the introduction of the first ever fully-robotic exoplanet detector which takes high-precision radial velocity measurements to measure the gravitational reflex motion, and advancing computer algorithms that avoid human errors in data analysis, modern advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) technology have not only transformed the efficiency and accuracy of exoplanet detection, but also extended our understanding of these distant worlds. While the use of AI does have its benefits, there are several drawbacks that could potentially hinder further advancement in the field of exoplanet detection.

The recent development of artificial intelligence (AI) technology is bringing about changes at a faster pace and on a larger scale than any other period in human history. With technological advancements overcoming the limitations of medical AI through training with databases, AI technology has made remarkable progress since the inception of deep learning for image processing with convolutional neural networks (CNN) in 2012. The recent advancements in natural language processing (NLP) have accelerated the utilization of AI through sophisticated natural language processing, enabling machines to identify and understand data regardless of the complexity of the language. This has laid the foundation for the rapid and precise development of generative AI. In the era where generative AI is being utilized without pausing in its developmental speed, we considered the civil liability of AI in our civil law principles, taking into account the inherent characteristics of AI such as unpredictability, opacity, and the black box effect. To do this, we first examined the legal liability considering the stages of AI technology development in discussing the tort liability caused by AI. Even “Weak AI,” created by AI developers, may fall under “Gefahr,” and while not all types, some may apply to strict liability in terms of risk liability. Furthermore, while reviewing civil liability applicable to AI under fault-based and no-fault liability, we also looked at the trends in the EU comparatively. In discussing no-fault liability, particularly under the Product Liability Act, we examined the possibility and implications of applying risk liability to pharmaceutical manufacturing using generative AI technology as a representative example to overcome the limitations of the existing Product Liability Act. Humanity currently lives in an era of rapid technological development and exploding big data, enjoying numerous benefits due to these advancements. As user convenience improves and massive added value is created through technological progress, the meaning of risk liability in the realm of civil liability can gain more significance. Generative AI has already drastically reduced the costs and time required for new drug development, providing substantial profits to pharmaceutical companies. However, even if the existing Product Liability Act is applied, it may be difficult to adequately remedy the harm to victims due to the reasonable alternative possibility defense regarding design defects. In the era of generative AI, we examined the possibility of applying enhanced risk liability by assuming the case of pharmaceutical manufacturing.
