AI Layoff Pulse

The human side of the AI layoff story

Dashboard Guide ↗
Updated:

Recent Stories

The curated narrative layer used by analytics. Use as the human sanity check against the charts.

No stories yet

Stories

Promoted story count in the selected window. This reflects curated stories, not raw intake.

Avg Sentiment

Heuristic emotional tone across promoted stories. Useful directionally, not as a truth oracle.

Top Adaptation

Most common response path in the curated dataset: pivoting, gig work, job hunting, or none.

Anxiety Index

Synthetic stress indicator derived from emotional signals in promoted stories. Directional, not clinical.

0 low 5 mid 10 high
Candidates Staged

Raw intake volume before final curation. This is the staging layer, not the final promoted dataset.

Accepted

Staged candidates currently allowed through the gate or promoted manually.

Rejected

Staged candidates blocked from promotion by the collector or by manual moderation.

Top Rejection Reason

Most common failure mode in the current review slice. Useful for tuning queries and gates.

Volume & Sentiment Over Time

Area = promoted story volume. Line = sentiment trend. Use this to compare activity bursts with emotional direction.

Adaptation Paths

Shows how promoted stories respond to pressure: pivots, gigs, job hunting, and other adaptation modes.

Emotion Breakdown

Average emotional composition of promoted stories across fear, anger, sadness, and hope.

Platform Distribution

Shows where the promoted narrative signal is coming from. X is usually noisier than Reddit.

Top Companies Mentioned

Most frequently named employers in promoted stories, plus rough sentiment toward them.

Rejection Reasons

Shows why staged candidates are failing review or the promotion gate. Useful for tuning the collector.

No rejected candidates in selected window.

Platform Acceptance Split

Accepted vs rejected ratio by source platform. Good for spotting noisy sources.

Raw Candidate Review

Moderation layer for staged intake: inspect, filter, promote, or reject with explicit reasons.

About / Methodology

What this dashboard measures, and what it does not.

Purpose

AI Layoff Pulse tracks the human side of AI-linked job disruption. It is a curated signal system for first-hand narratives about layoffs, displacement, fear, adaptation, and rebuilding.

Data layers

  • Raw candidates: staged intake before or during review.
  • Stories: promoted items used by the main analytics.
  • Daily metrics: aggregated snapshots used for trend charts and KPIs.

Important caveats

  • X is noisier than Reddit and needs stricter curation.
  • Sentiment and emotion values are heuristic.
  • Story volume is influenced by collector queries and moderation, not only real-world events.

Moderation workflow

Use Raw Candidate Review to inspect staged items, filter by platform/decision, and manually promote or reject candidates with explicit reasons. Those reasons help tune the pipeline instead of burying errors under vague manual overrides.
