It's fashionable to blame generative AI for high recent grad unemployment — but the evidence doesn’t hold up. Check out @RadWill_'s analysis for @employamerica!

Don’t worry, we will. It may be, though, an inflation tax!

New from our guest writer @RadWill_ on the rise on recent graduate unemployment. Is it AI? Not so fast!

Guys at some point we are going to have to tax SOMETHING I’m just saying

A lot of people are blaming AI for grads’ poor outcomes, but I find the evidence for this claim is surprisingly thin. Excited to release a new analysis w/ @employamerica on the labor market performance of recent college grads. 🧵

60% of the American companies on Fortune's list of top AI innovators have an immigrant founder. The world’s top talent overwhelmingly wants to come to US. This is a incredible advantage. American leadership in AI depends on allowing, even encouraging, high-skilled immigration.

Moreover, when you break down which occupations have seen the greatest rise in unemployment among young men w/ college degrees, it's 1) a broad story across occupations, but 2) with the greatest rises in *manual* jobs (production, repair, construction). Doesn't seem AI-driven.

But, plot twist: The much-discussed contraction in entry-level tech hiring appears to have *reversed* in recent months. In fact, relative to the pre-generative AI era, recent grads have secured coding jobs at the same rate as they’ve found any job, if not slightly higher.

…any chance anyone has this note and can send it to me….

BLS's import price indices explicitly do not include tariffs. So this chart is actually making the exact opposite point: foreign producers have likely eaten very little if any of the cost of US tariffs in the form of lower prices. 1/2

This tweet has exactly one like and frankly that’s correct
