#2> There's suggestive evidence that hiring of young workers (ages 22–25) into exposed occupations has slowed — roughly a 14% drop in the job-finding rate
There goes my excuse of not finding a job in this market.

#5I don't think there's been much of an impact, really. Those who know how to use AI just got tangentially more productive (because why would you reveal your fake 10x productivity boost so your boss hands you 10x more tasks to finish?), and those w/o AI knowledge stayed the way they were.
The real impact is for indie-devs or freelancers but that usually doesn't account for much of the GDP.

Work is freezing hiring and upping spending on tokens for everyone.
Don't know if this is effective and I don't think management knows either, but it's what they're doing

Doesn't mean the two are related.
Is AI just the excuse? We've got tariffs, war, uncertainty and other drama non stop.

I hope they know what they're doing.
