Summary
Since generative artificial intelligence was made available to the general public in November 2022, hiring of 21-to-29-year-olds in the jobs most exposed to this technology has been shrinking. This is shown by a joint study by the Banque de France and the Laboratoire de l'innovation et du futur du travail, affiliated with HEC. The article looks at the effects of generative AI on youth employment in the occupations most affected by the automation of certain tasks.
