JOB APOCALYPSE MAY ALREADY BE       HERE (9 MINUTE READ) [14]                Millions of young graduates are entering into industries that have       little use for their skills, view them as expensive and expendable,       and are rapidly phasing out their jobs in favor of artificial       intelligence. This emerging crisis for entry-level workers is being       fueled in part by rapid advances in AI capabilities. Unemployment for       recent college graduates has jumped to an unusually high 5.8% in       recent months. While some executives are making a calculated bet on AI       systems, there are many risks, for example, the expectation that       entry-level jobs are short-lived may lead companies to underinvest in       job training, mentorship, and other programs aimed at entry-level       workers, leaving those workers unprepared for more senior roles later       on.                THE U.S. PLAN TO HOBBLE CHINA TECH ISN'T WORKING (9 MINUTE READ) [15]               US efforts to win the tech race against China have so far failed.       While White House officials and their proxies want to ban the export       of AI microchips and the tools to make them, some outside the       administration say that such policies are backfiring by accelerating       China's development of its own tech ecosystem. The debate comes down       to whether it is better to have China dependent on US tech or if the       national security risk of China having US tech is too great. China's       well-organized, well-funded, and consistent push for self-sufficiency       has lessened its dependence on other countries, and each year it       produces a greater proportion of everything it needs.               Links:       ------       [14] https://links.tldrnewsletter.com/BWVXnE       [15] https://links.tldrnewsletter.com/3FAHOl               -- https://tldr.tech/tech              $$       --- SBBSecho 3.20-Linux        * Origin: capitolcityonline.net * Telnet/SSH:2022/HTTP (1:2320/105)       SEEN-BY: 105/81 106/201 128/187 129/14 305 153/7715 154/110 218/700       SEEN-BY: 226/30 227/114 229/110 111 114 206 300 307 317 400 426 428       SEEN-BY: 229/470 664 700 705 266/512 291/111 320/219 322/757 342/200       SEEN-BY: 396/45 460/58 712/848 902/26 2320/0 105 3634/12 5075/35       PATH: 2320/105 229/426           |
