Jan Fransoo @proflog.bsky.social · 19/11/20256/6 What’s next? * Train newcomers to use AI responsibly. * Automate reviews to reduce expert burden. * Reward experts for mentorship, not just fixes. Full paper: dx.doi.org/10.2139/ssrn... Where do you see this happening in your field? #AI #Workplace #Innovationdx.doi.org 030
Jan Fransoo @proflog.bsky.social · 19/11/20255/6 Why it matters: * Experts are a bottleneck. If they’re stuck fixing, innovation slows. * Quality risks: AI can introduce errors that experts must catch. * Burnout: Experts may leave if their role becomes only reviewing. 100
Jan Fransoo @proflog.bsky.social · 19/11/20254/6 Beyond coding: This risk applies to any role where AI "helps" newcomers: * Customer support: AI drafts replies → seniors edit. * Design: AI generates layouts → experts refine. * Legal/writing: AI drafts docs → seniors verify. More output ≠ better quality. 100
Jan Fransoo @proflog.bsky.social · 19/11/20253/6 The pattern: * AI lowers the barrier → newcomers contribute more. * But their work needs more fixes, overwhelming experts. * Result: Experts innovate less, review more. This dynamic could reshape any field where AI assists workers. 100
Jan Fransoo @proflog.bsky.social · 19/11/20252/6 How we show this: * Analyzed 2,755 open-source projects and 1,699 contributors before/after Copilot’s launch. * Used difference-in-differences to isolate AI’s impact. * Found: Experts shifted from coding to reviewing, while AI-assisted work needed more rework. 100
Jan Fransoo @proflog.bsky.social · 19/11/20251/6 🚀 Our new study reveals a hidden cost of AI tools like GitHub Copilot: While less-experienced devs produce 43.5% more code, experts face a 19% drop in productivity as they shoulder the review burden. This isn’t just about coding—this might also affect other work. Thread 👇 #AI #FutureOfWork 110

Jan Fransoo @proflog.bsky.social · 14/04/2025Interesting analysis by @joristeer.bsky.social . Some of the examples can rely on strengthening and expanding the current industrial base. However, in many industries, it is an issue of redeveloping the ability to produce at mass scale, against affordable cost, and error-free. Tough process. 030
Jan Fransoo @proflog.bsky.social · 08/04/2025Eliminating or restricting OPT would not only be a massive blow to the ability of the US to continue attracting the world's top STEM talent, but also wipe out many graduate programs at universities that already have come under enormous financial pressure. 011
