• AI is weighing on employment

    The shock jobs report sets off this recession alert and holds fresh
    clues that AI may be boosting unemployment, JPMorgan says

    The weak jobs report for July and steep downward revisions for
    prior months revealed a sharp decline in labor demand that's
    suggestive of a recession, JPMorgan warned. Elsewhere in the data, an
    increase in unemployment among college graduates as well as a decline
    in staffing at business services firms could be hints that AI is
    impacting jobs.

    The jobs report that delivered a stunning wake-up call to Wall Street
    on Friday also contained a recession signal and more indications that
    AI is weighing on employment.
