AI is eliminating approximately 16,000 jobs per month in the U.S., primarily affecting entry-level positions.
In the past week, automaker Stellantis and retailer Home Depot became the latest major companies to call employees back to the office five days a week.

About one-third of all U.S. firms (34%) are requiring workers to be in the office full time, according to workforce insight provider Flex Index.
Geoffrey Hinton, the Nobel Prize winning computer scientist who is often referred to as the "Godfather of AI", famously asserted in 2016 that, "People should stop training radiologists now. It's just completely obvious that in five years deep learning is going to do better than radiologists." The logical expectation would be that the number of radiologists should begin to decline over time as they begin to get replaced by AI.
