According to Jinshi, the ADP employment number in the U.S. for May is 122,000, expected to be 117,000, and the previous value was 109,000.

OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said on Tuesday that the rapid development and application of artificial intelligence will not lead to a global "job apocalypse," and that this technology has not taken away as many white-collar jobs as he previously feared. He stated that when OpenAI launched ChatGPT in 2022, the company's predictions about the development of technology were "basically correct," but their judgments about the social and economic impacts were "quite wrong.""I am glad that I misjudged this matter; I originally thought that by now, the elimination of junior white-collar jobs would be more severe than it actually is. Now I feel I understand better why that hasn't happened, and I am obviously relieved about it." An increasing number of global companies have announced that some positions within their organizations are being replaced by artificial intelligence. Altman noted that he realizes that despite AI playing an increasingly positive role in many industries and positions, there remains an irreplaceable "human aspect" in employment, and much of the interpersonal interaction required for many jobs will not be replaced by AI.

Goldman Sachs CEO Solomon wrote in The New York Times that the market's concerns about AI triggering a "massive wave of unemployment" are exaggerated. The U.S. economy will continue to create more new jobs through technological transformation, just as it did during the past industrial revolution and the internet era. Solomon stated that Goldman Sachs expects AI or automation to affect about 25% of existing work hours over the next decade, with significant impacts on white-collar sectors such as banking, accounting, and law. Research from Stanford shows that entry-level positions in highly automated roles like software engineering and customer service have declined by 16% compared to less automated industries.However, he pointed out that AI is also creating new job demands. For example, since 2022, the construction of data centers in the U.S. has generated over 200,000 construction jobs. Goldman Sachs itself may reduce some compliance and account opening positions but will increase hiring for client-facing roles in banking, trading, and asset management. Solomon believes that AI is more likely to enhance productivity rather than directly eliminate 25% of jobs. He stated, "Technological advancement and cultural change do not occur simultaneously; being replaceable does not mean one will necessarily be replaced." He also called for the government and businesses to jointly promote large-scale job retraining to address the structural changes in the workforce brought about by AI.

According to Jinshi reports, the number of initial jobless claims in the United States for the week ending May 16 was 209,000, lower than the market expectation of 210,000, and the previous value was revised from 211,000 to 212,000.

According to Jinshi reports, the U.S. seasonally adjusted non-farm payrolls increased by 115,000 in April, a significant decline as expected, but higher than the market expectation of an increase of 62,000.

According to Jinshi News, St. Louis Fed President Bullard stated that there is significant uncertainty regarding the outlook for the U.S. economy and monetary policy. He believes that the risks associated with current inflation are rising compared to employment risks. Bullard pointed out that inflation is significantly above the 2% target level, and the risks are more tilted towards inflation rather than employment.He mentioned that the Fed's benchmark policy rate is currently at a neutral level, possibly slightly leaning towards easing, and there is a reasonable scenario for maintaining the current policy rate, but further rate cuts or increases may also be necessary.

According to Jinshi reports, the U.S. ADP employment number increased by 109,000 in April, the largest increase since January of last year, exceeding the market expectation of 99,000.

According to Jinshi reports, the number of people continuing to claim unemployment benefits in the U.S. for the week ending April 18 was 1.785 million, lower than the market expectation of 1.815 million, and the previous value was revised from 1.821 million to 1.808 million.

According to Jinshi reports, Federal Reserve Chairman Powell stated that every supply shock has the potential to raise inflation and unemployment rates.

According to Jinshi reports, former Federal Reserve Vice Chairman and economist Roger Ferguson stated that the labor market is currently in a generally stable state, but inflation remains high at 3%, and much work still needs to be done. He expects the Federal Reserve to temporarily hold its position and observe the development of the situation. Goldman Sachs economist David Mericle also expects that the statement after the Federal Reserve meeting will acknowledge the improvement in the job market and the rise in inflation, but the policy guidance will remain unchanged, with most expecting to maintain interest rates.
