Data and Code for: "How Different Uses of AI Shape Labor Demand: Evidence from France"

Using French firm-level data on AI adoption between 2017 and 2020, we establish four results. First, firms adopting AI are larger, more productive and skill-intensive. Second, difference-in-differences estimates reveal an increase in firm-level employment and sales after AI adoption, suggesting that the induced productivity gains allow firms to grow and outweigh potential displacement effects. Third, occupations classified in recent work as substitutable with AI also expand. Fourth, AI usage is a relevant dimension of heterogeneity in the labor demand response: we find positive employment growth for certain uses (e.g. ICT security) and negative for others (e.g. administrative processes).
