A recent study from Stanford University economists indicates that artificial intelligence is disproportionately impacting entry-level jobs, particularly for younger workers aged 22-25. The research, updated in August 2026, found that employment in AI-exposed occupations for this age group is 19% lower than in less affected fields. This trend is primarily driven by reduced hiring rates rather than increased layoffs, and it is more pronounced in jobs susceptible to AI automation compared to those where AI serves as an augmentation tool.
