"Once, a university degree was widely seen as a “ticket” to securing
high-paying jobs and social mobility.
Now, as artificial intelligence (AI) promises to revolutionise the labour
market, it’s university students and recent graduates who face some of the
greatest uncertainty.
How do you pick a major or a career when it isn’t obvious what jobs will even
exist in 10 years’ time?
Back in May, the chief executive of the AI company Anthropic, Dario Amodei,
claimed AI could eradicate half of all entry-level white collar jobs over the
next five years.
At this stage, it’s still up for debate whether AI will lead to such a mass
wipe-out of graduate roles, or just change what these jobs look like.
Either way, we have a collective duty to prepare young people for an AI-driven
world. Students, educators, employers and the government all have a role to
play."
