The Difference between a 23YO American in 1980, and a 23YO American in 2025

32. People don't realize how bad looking for a job is now.

Our college graduates are coming into a world where they might not find a job despite graduating.

Many of the job postings now are fake. You’re writing a resume and cover letter that will never be considered.

If someone responds to an application, there’s a chance it’s just an AI bot or scammer.

Many companies are using AI to scan resumes now. Also, companies are being spammed with fake AI resumes, making visibility of real candidates even lower.

We are not planning to offset jobs lost through AI. Our plan is, “Just let them be poor. It’s ok to have 50% unemployment in society.” It’s completely delusional. Our society is eating itself rather than using AI to create more jobs. Keep wages stagnant and laying people off with no alternative, and, you are creating a nice time bomb that is going to explode on our society.
