[quote=Anonymous]Did you see that Amazon expects to replace more than 500,000 distribution center employees with robots? They also announced this week that they are cutting 14,000 corporate jobs.

Amazon is just the beginning, there were more announcements this week.

October 30, 2025: General Motors is laying off thousands of workers across multiple electric vehicle and battery plants in the U.S. -around 1,200 employees at its EV factory in Detroit.

October 29, 2025: Paramount will lay off roughly 2,000 workers across the media company.

October 28, 2025: UPS announced layoffs of 48,000 employees—14,000 in management positions and 34,000 in operations roles.

October 27, 2025:  General Motors has let go of over 200 salaried employees, mainly CAD engineers, at its Michigan tech campus.

October 25, 2025:  Target will lay off around 1,000 employees.

Here’s an Axios article about AI:

[b]Behind the Curtain: How an AI job apocalypse unfolds[/b]

“All of this amplifies publicly what we keep hearing from CEOs privately. Almost every company is planning to slow hiring in the short term, and operate with much smaller human workforces in the future.”

Care to guess which careers haven’t announced RIFs, furloughs, layoffs and AI replacement strategies? That would be state, county and local law enforcement and other local first responder positions.

Entry level positions for many white collar jobs are drying up for the 21+ year old college graduates. The classes of 2024 and 2025 graduated into a tough, deteriorating economy. They face competition from out of work, older applicants with years of applicable job experience on their resumes. Worst of all, as noted above, companies are working towards replacing entry level positions with AI. These market conditions won’t improve for the class of 2026 and they’ll only get worse for each of the classes to follow.

Almost every law enforcement job opening is entry level. AI can’t replace patrol officers. Students need to come to grips with the fact that AI will be an enormous disrupter for many (most?) professions. A 15-year-old student in 2025-26 could face a massive U.S. unemployment rate by the time they’re old enough to buy their first “legal” adult beverage. Unfortunately, these young people need to start preparing for these future disruptions now.
