GPTs are GPTs: An Early Look at the Labor Market Impact Potential of Large Language Models

OpenAI published research examining the potential labor market impacts of large language models, analyzing which occupations and tasks are most exposed to automation or augmentation by GPT-class models. The study introduces a framework for assessing LLM 'exposure' across job categories, finding that a significant share of U.S. workers could see at least 50% of their tasks affected. The paper represents an early systematic attempt to quantify economic disruption potential from frontier AI systems.
