  • The article itself says that it isn’t clear whether AI is causing significant job displacement yet, but here are a few personal observations:

    Companies want the best “bang for their buck”. That includes saving money on hires and giving up quality of their product for additional profits. New hires take time to screen, interview, and train - all of which takes time and money that companies appear impatient to dedicate. It would not surprise me if some of them wanted to try using AI for entry level work before resorting to hiring recent graduates.

    Another thing the article mentioned which is true is diplomas not having the same worth they used to. As higher education became more accessible and more common, a four year degree became a minimum requirement on many job listings even though just as many of those jobs could be done by someone without a degree if they had adequate training on the job.

    If you believe your point is worth making, then your time isn’t wasted. There are more lurkers than commenters, and your words might have an impact of them without you realizing it.

    Say it because you believe in it, and not because you want validation.
