Should we be down playing the impact of AI on young people, youth unemployment and the demand for entry level jobs? To be honest youth unemployment is a problem in many regions and countries and hiring freezes are a sign of a very restricted economy. Well no more I'm assuming with the jobs report later today.

If millions of students are using chatGPT can we assume that even the value of a college education will become eroded? Are we supposed to imagine that these young people are more likely to become entrepreneurs because of their cohort struggle to find an entry-level job?

If the Trump Administration wants to tweak immigration and deport masses of people, it's going to have dire consequences on the labor demand supply market. Meddling in industrial policy is not helping. If tech companies continue to use AI for a greater amount of their code, what is that even mean for the long-term demand for software engineers?
