Here's what tech and business leaders have said about AI's impact on the next generation of workers.For young Gen Zers entering the workforce, the rise of generative artificial intelligence has brought no shortage of uncertainty.Anthropic's CEO has warned that the tech could wipe out many entry-level roles, while other executives have argued that younger employees may be better positioned than anyone to thrive in an AI-powered workplace.
The debate underscores one of the biggest unanswered questions surrounding AI: Will it eliminate the first rung of the career ladder, or help young job hunters climb it faster?"I think a lot of the disagreement is centered around the speed that the AI transition will take place," Felix Aidala, an economist at the Indeed Hiring Lab, the job platform's economic research arm, told Business Insider.Entry-level job postings on Indeed have fallen about 6% over the past year, though Aidala said it's difficult to attribute the decline to any single factor.
AI, remote work, and broader macroeconomic conditions have likely all played a role, he said.Aidala added that the job market for entry-level workers is already seeing some "AI-driven shifts," with AI implementation roles growing "significantly" on Indeed's site in recent months."Historically, technological advancements have almost always led to job growth for the economy as a whole.
But those transformations take time as new roles and industries are developed," Aidala said.Here's what some CEOs and executives in tech and business have said about what AI means for the next generation of workers.Dario Amodei, CEO of AnthropicDario Amodei is the CEO of Anthropic.
