"There's no sign in the data that AI is costing anybody their job right now," Kevin Hassett, a White House adviser, said on May 11th.(“数据中没有任何迹象表明人工智能正在让任何人失业,”白宫顾问凯文·哈塞特在5月11日表示。) Someone should tell America's class of 2026. "It's grim," one professor says of the market for graduate jobs. Artificial intelligence is the popular villain. At a recent commencement ceremony in Florida a speaker was booed for mentioning it. And not without reason: our analysis suggests AI(人工智能(Artificial Intelligence)) may indeed be harming some graduates' job prospects.
“数据中没有任何迹象表明人工智能正在让任何人失业,”白宫顾问凯文·哈塞特在5月11日表示。应该有人告诉美国2026届毕业生。“就业市场很严峻,”一位教授这样评价毕业生就业市场。人工智能成了众矢之的。在佛罗里达州最近的一次毕业典礼上,一名演讲者因提及人工智能而被喝倒彩。这并非毫无道理:我们的分析表明,人工智能可能确实损害了一些毕业生的就业前景。
A university degree no longer seems to offer much protection from joblessness(避免失业的保护): recent graduates are likelier(更有可能(likely的比较级)) to be unemployed than the average American. The current cohort feels particularly gloomy(沮丧的,悲观的). Less than a fifth of them think this is a good time to find a good job—the lowest share in over a decade, and well below the figure for Americans overall, at more than a quarter. A slump in on-campus recruiting(校园招聘) is not helping. Job postings on Handshake(Handshake是美国领先的大学生求职...), a search platform for university students, are 50% below their peak of 2022.
大学学位似乎不再能提供多少避免失业的保护:近期毕业生比普通美国人更有可能失业。当前这一届毕业生尤其感到悲观。不到五分之一的人认为现在是找到好工作的好时机——这是十多年来的最低比例,远低于美国总体(超过四分之一)。校园招聘的低迷也无济于事。针对大学生的求职平台Handshake上的职位发布量比2022年峰值下降了50%。
Many suspect AI is to blame(应受责备,是原因). More than half of employers say they have considered replacing(取代,替代) entry-level workers with the technology. A recent poll by the Institute of Politics at Harvard University's Kennedy School found that, similarly, more than half of young Americans see AI as a threat to their job prospects.
许多人怀疑人工智能是罪魁祸首。超过一半的雇主表示,他们曾考虑用这项技术取代初级员工。哈佛大学肯尼迪学院政治研究所最近的一项民意调查发现,同样,超过一半的美国年轻人将人工智能视为对其就业前景的威胁。
