CEU Seminar: Paul Gaggl (UNC Charlotte) -- Wed April 8 11.15am
by Timea Laura Molnar 31 Mar '26

31 Mar '26

Dear all, Our next seminar speaker at CEU is Paul Gaggl (UNC Charlotte). Seminar title: "The Demand for Tasks in the Age of AI." Abstract: "I document emerging patterns in labor market task demand following ChatGPT's November 2022 launch, leveraging 48.3 million job postings (2022-2025) matched with Anthropic's classification of AI-suitable tasks from 3.5 million Claude conversations. Preliminary findings reveal a striking divergence: First, between May 2022 and May 2025 (only three years), we observe meaningful movements in demand for tasks in the labor market. Second, firms initially intensive in AI-suitable tasks (above median) substantively reduce their intensity in these tasks, while initially low-intensity firms (below median) do the opposite. Third, while the overall demand for AI-suitable tasks appears to have declined (on average), firms that increase the AI-intensity of their task demand do so primarily via tasks that Anthropic classifies as augmenting humans." Speaker's website: https://gaggl.org/research/ You are all cordially invited to his in-person seminar. Time and venue: April 8, Wednesday, 11.15am - 12.30pm, QS B-505, at CEU (51 Quellenstrasse, 1100 Vienna) Registration, till 12pm, the day before the seminar, is required at: https://forms.office.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=E1nE2VN24kuSC72wOGOBhDP… With questions, please contact the CEU seminar organizer, Timea L.

WU Research Seminar in Economics - Rudolf Winter-Ebmer - April 8, 4.30 pm
by Oberhofer, Harald 30 Mar '26

30 Mar '26

Dear colleagues, The Department of Economics cordially invites you to the WU Research Seminar in Economics on Wednesday, April 8th, with Rudolf Winter-Ebmer (https://www.jku.at/institut-fuer-volkswirtschaftslehre/team/winter-ebmer-ru…) presenting: "The Returns to International Migration in a Free Mobility Setting: Evidence from Austria and Germany". Abstract: We study migration gains of migrants between Austria and Germany using administrative matched data from the two countries. Our analysis looks at long-term gains in the receiving country but also looks at return migrants. International migration gains are compared to non-migrating co-workers' behavior as well as to internal migrants who migrate from the countryside to a large city. Our analysis shows significant migration gains; larger gains for Austrians going to Germany but also gains for Germans going to Austria. * Date: Wednesday, April 8th * Time: 4.30 to 6 pm (CET) * Location: building D4, entrance A, ground floor, D4.0.144<https://campus.wu.ac.at/?q=D4.0.144> With best regards, Harald Oberhofer --- Univ.-Prof. Dr. Harald Oberhofer Department of Economics WU Vienna University of Economics and Business Phone: +43/1/31336-4984 Email: harald.oberhofer(a)wu.ac.at<mailto:harald.oberhofer@wu.ac.at> https://www.wu.ac.at/en/economics/people/oberhofer-h Austrian Institute of Economic Research (WIFO) Phone: +43/1/7982601-468 Email: harald.oberhofer(a)wifo.ac.at<mailto:harald.oberhofer@wifo.ac.at> http://www.wifo.ac.at/harald_oberhofer

Reminder: IHS Research Talk: Jonas Jessen -What’s in a Job Ad? Evidence From Worker Beliefs and Job Choice with a Priced Amenity
by IHS Event 24 Mar '26

[https://7i0di.img.bh.d.sendibt3.com/im/sh/j6vZieHv2FMI.png?u=1vcqsYC5HMzcSL…] IHS Research Talk Jonas Jessen (WZB Berlin) What’s in a Job Ad? Evidence From Worker Beliefs and Job Choice with a Priced Amenity March 31, 2026 3:30 pm - 4:30 pm Institute for Advanced Studies Josefstädter Straße 39, 1080 Vienna Lecture Room E02 Abstract Economists frequently rely on stated-choice experiments to estimate workers' willingness to pay (WTP) for job amenities that lack explicit market prices. These methods rest on the assumption that workers evaluate each job attribute in isolation. We test this assumption in a large-scale discrete choice experiment, embedding an amenity whose market price provides a known upper bound on its monetary value. Workers' stated WTP for the amenity is inflated substantially relative to its price, even though WTP estimates for other, unpriced amenities match those in the literature. The inflated WTP is consistent with the idea that listed job amenities act as signals: the presence of one feature leads workers to infer changes in other, unlisted aspects of the job. We confirm this mechanism in a belief-elicitation experiment, showing that the presence of amenities in a job ad causally shifts perceptions of pay and firm quality along unrelated dimensions. In turn, we document that the money metric in discrete choice experiments itself is contaminated by changes in worker beliefs about the employer in response to changes in posted wages. We explore the equilibrium implications of these findings for the valuation of non-wage amenities and for estimates of monopsony power derived from job choice models. Speaker Jonas Jessen is a postdoctoral research fellow at the WZB in Berlin in the research group “Inequality, social mobility and growth”. He is also associated with the IAB, CESifo and the Berlin School of Economics. His research is focused on labor economics, with an emphasis on gender and family aspects. His research has been published in numerous high ranking journals, like the Review of Economic Studies, the Economic Journal, the AEJ Applied or the Journal of Politics. Currently, he is working on a broad range of topics like job search, AI adoption, or sexual harassment in the workplace.

WG: Economic Theory & Policy Seminar / M. Rottner (BIS) / The Perils of Narrowing Fiscal Spaces
by Hutter, Julia 16 Mar '26

16 Mar '26

Dear all, we kindly invite you to our next Economic Theory & Policy talk on Mon, 23rd of March, 2026, 4:00 PM - TU Wien, Sem.R. DA green 04 (Freihaus Building, 4th floor, green area) "The Perils of Narrowing Fiscal Spaces" Matthias Rottner (BIS) https://sites.google.com/view/matthias-rottner When public debt is elevated, the fiscal cost of fighting inflation rises sharply, as interest rate hikes increase government interest expenditures. We formalize this mechanism in a nonlinear New Keynesian model with a state-dependent fiscal constraint on monetary policy. High debt may dampen the monetary response to inflation, generating an inflationary bias even though government debt remains fully fiscally backed. The interaction between high debt and inflationary cost-push shocks makes the fiscal limit more likely to bind, amplifying inflation. In demand-driven downturns, the fiscal constraint may become more restrictive than the zero lower bound, forcing the central bank to either print money to purchase excess debt or accept fiscal dominance.
