Stanford economists say AI has hit entry-level jobs the hardest in a study updated in August 2026. The researchers found that workers aged 22 to 25 in occupations with high AI exposure had employment levels 19% lower than those in low-exposure fields. That gap was 13% last year, indicating a wider decline over time. The study is titled “Canaries in the Coal Mine? Six Facts about the Recent Employment Effects of Artificial Intelligence,” and the report was cited by Ars Technica.
