Goldman: workers displaced by AI search longer for jobs and suffer lasting setbacks
Goldman Sachs research finds that workers displaced by AI wait a month longer for new jobs, and the layoffs may leave a lasting "scar". Another summary says AI layoffs have become quieter, but Goldman may expect a recession with the next wave.
Who is affected and how
- employee
- In case of layoffs, prepare for a longer job search and for a financial reserve.
- job seeker
- In sectors affected by AI the search takes longer, so it is worth considering retraining early.
- 50+/senior
- Because the effect is lasting, the risk of a long gap after dismissal deserves closer attention.
