Summary

A study by HEC and the Banque de France, seen exclusively by Challenges, shows that permanent hiring of 21-29 year-olds has fallen by nearly 30% in the jobs most exposed to generative AI since the arrival of ChatGPT. This amounts to 75,000 fewer permanent contracts signed by young people each year in these industries. The article then presents five examples of the jobs most at risk from AI.
