AI's Impact on Young Job Seekers: A Growing Concern
Update: 2025-11-12
Description
On November twelfth, a concerning trend for young job seekers is emerging as companies increasingly turn to artificial intelligence. Economist Marc Sumerlin suggests that businesses, while not yet seeing full returns from AI, are anticipating future benefits and may scale back hiring of younger workers in the interim. This shift is particularly troubling given that unemployment among recent graduates is already on the rise. Meanwhile, some experts believe Gen Zs familiarity with AI makes them highly attractive to employers, but others fear that many entry-level roles could disappear before new ones are created. This evolving landscape presents a complex challenge for young people entering the workforce, requiring adaptability and a focus on skills that complement, rather than compete with, artificial intelligence.
