JOB APOCALYPSE MAY ALREADY BE HERE (9 MINUTE READ) [14] Millions of young graduates are entering into industries that have little use for their skills, view them as expensive and expendable, and are rapidly phasing out their jobs in favor of artificial intelligence. This emerging crisis for entry-level workers is being fueled in part by rapid advances in AI capabilities. Unemployment for recent college graduates has jumped to an unusually high 5.8% in recent months. While some executives are making a calculated bet on AI systems, there are many risks, for example, the expectation that entry-level jobs are short-lived may lead companies to underinvest in job training, mentorship, and other programs aimed at entry-level workers, leaving those workers unprepared for more senior roles later on. THE U.S. PLAN TO HOBBLE CHINA TECH ISN'T WORKING (9 MINUTE READ) [15] US efforts to win the tech race against China have so far failed. While White House officials and their proxies want to ban the export of AI microchips and the tools to make them, some outside the administration say that such policies are backfiring by accelerating China's development of its own tech ecosystem. The debate comes down to whether it is better to have China dependent on US tech or if the national security risk of China having US tech is too great. China's well-organized, well-funded, and consistent push for self-sufficiency has lessened its dependence on other countries, and each year it produces a greater proportion of everything it needs.
