How is Agent Age Work made?

Agent Age Work – the impact of AI on the labour market, careers, recruitment and HR: weekly selected news by viewpoint, with a Hungarian focus.

Collection

Targeted English and Hungarian searches across five search engines (Google News, Exa, Brave, Tavily, Serper) in weekly time windows, with separate queries for the Hungarian trade press. The 783 stories cite 1,688 different source sites, since Aug 5, 2026.

Selection

Articles about the same event are grouped by title similarity. Each week we include every story that is substantive news for the players in the field; stock-price news, advertising copy and opinion without content are left out. Groups coming from Hungarian sources get extra attention, so that Hungarian cases known from only a few sources are included too. Order: weight, then the number of independent sources.

Viewpoints

For every story we mark which groups it affects (employee, job seeker, early-career, 50+/senior, manager, HR professional, SME owner) and say in one sentence what it means for them in practice. These lines are machine-edited from the source, are for information only and are not advice.

Collections

Hungary (127); Layoff watch (55); Surveys and data (311); Regulation and labour law (87). Collections are grouped by story type, in chronological order.

Limitations

The summaries are based on the titles and excerpts of the articles; the source of the facts is always the original article cited. The search engines do not cover the entire press, so we query the Hungarian trade publications separately as well.
