Several independently constructed measures converge on this pattern. Eloundou et al. (2023) report that LLM exposure rises with occupational wage; Pew Research Center (2023) finds college-educated and higher-paid workers more exposed to AI; an Equitable Growth working paper confirms higher-income workers are more exposed regardless of race, age, citizenship, and education. The main open question is at the very top of the wage distribution, where some measures and usage data suggest the gradient flattens or dips.
