There Is Now Clearer Evidence AI Is Wrecking Young Americans’ Job Prospects

Artificial intelligence is profoundly limiting some young Americans’ employment prospects, new research shows.

Young workers are getting hit in fields where generative-AI tools such as ChatGPT can most easily automate tasks done by humans, such as software development, according to a paper released Tuesday by three Stanford University economists. They crunched anonymized data on millions of employees at tens of thousands of firms, including detailed information on workers’ ages and jobs, making this one of clearest indicators yet of AI’s disruptive impact.

“There’s a clear, evident change when you specifically look at young workers who are highly exposed to AI,” said Stanford economist Erik Brynjolfsson, who conducted the research with Bharat Chandar and Ruyu Chen.

Future of Europe’s Muslim population: Pew study outlines three scenarios for continent’s demographic shift

The Pew Research Center has modeled three different future scenarios of Muslim population growth based on varying levels of potential migration to European countries.

“These are not efforts to predict what will happen in the future, but rather a set of projections about what could happen under different circumstances,” the data collection and analysis group insisted, near the top of their report on the future of Muslim migration to Europe.

Responsible for the AfD? Then she accomplished one good thing.

Carney’s conundrum: Will he abandon some 40,000 farmers to save Canada’s auto industry?

You might have seen those bright yellow fields reaching toward the horizon under a clear blue sky — fields of canola spread across Alberta, Saskatchewan and Manitoba, bringing in billions of dollars each year for farmers and their families.

Now the annual harvest is in danger: one of Canada’s biggest customers, China, has slapped a 76 per cent tariff on canola seed, as well as a 100 per cent tariff on canola oil and meal. Why has it done this? In retaliation for the 100 per cent tariff Canada applied to Chinese electric vehicles starting last October. We were copying the United States at the time, back when relations between our two countries were more cordial, to protect the American and Canadian auto industries. But the Canadian sector, which operates mostly in Ontario, has yet to produce a single EV.
