AI and Jobs: Where Hiring Is Growing Among Active AI Investors

Friends, a quick AI update: data challenge the simple narrative of mass layoffs.

Ramp and Revelio Labs found that companies spending roughly $30 per employee on AI in the first three months increased headcount by 10.2%; in the tech sector, growth (including junior roles) was 12%.

But the sample skews to fast‑growing, tech‑savvy firms — we cannot conclude AI universally creates jobs. Subscriptions and pilots without long‑term investment do not drive growth, potentially widening the gap between well‑resourced firms and others.

Why it matters: AI can be a scaling tool, not just a substitute for labor.

Which matters more to you: AI investment or employee upskilling?
