The AI Backlash Keeps Growing Stronger
The impacts of generative AI on the workforce are another core issue that critics are organizing around. “Workers are more intuitive than a lot of the pundit class gives them credit for,” says Merchant. “They know this has been a naked attempt to get rid of people.” The next major shift in public opinion will likely follow previous patterns, occurring when broad swaths of workers feel further threatened and organize in response. And this time, the in-person protests may be just as big as the online backlash.

October Challenger Report: 153,074 Job Cuts on Cost-Cutting & AI
U.S.-based employers announced 153,074 job cuts in October, up 175% from the 55,597 cuts announced in October 2024. It is up 183% from the 54,064 job cuts announced one month prior, according to a report released Thursday from global outplacement and executive coaching firm Challenger, Gray & Christmas. “October’s pace of job cutting was much higher than average for the month. Some industries are correcting after the hiring boom of the pandemic, but this comes as AI adoption, softening consumer and corporate spending, and rising costs drive belt-tightening and hiring freezes.

Jerome Powell says the AI hiring apocalypse is real: 'Job creation is pretty close to zero.’ | Fortune
According to a Challenger, Gray & Christmas report, U.S. employers have announced nearly 946,000 layoffs so far this year—the highest total since 2020—with more than 17,000 explicitly tied to AI and another 20,000 to automation.
“Job creation is very low, and the job-finding rate for people who are unemployed is very low,” Powell said.
The phenomenon is so widespread some economists have coined a new term—the “Great Freeze”—to describe the dismal labor market conditions. With unemployment among recent college grads topping 5%—and AI threatening to automate entry-level office jobs—many Gen Z workers are turning to graduate school as a strategic timeout.

MGblogsAI2026 college grads may face worst job market in years
An NBER study finds double majors suffer 56% less income loss during economic shocks compared with single-major peers. At the University of Wisconsin-Madison, 30% of graduates double major, with computer science–data science leading the combinations. Research shows pairing a STEM or business discipline with a liberal arts field yields stronger job matches and R&D roles than doubling up on similar skills.

Stop Running So Many AI Pilots
Harvard Business Review research shows only 4% of companies deploy AI with a "deep and narrow" approach - focusing on transforming ONE strategic domain completely rather than running scattered pilots.
The result? Double the ROI compared to shallow, broad implementations.
The insight: Stop spreading thin. Go deep in one domain.

How Behavioral Science Can Improve the Return on AI Investments
The problem is that integrating new AI tools is fundamentally a behavioral challenge. Getting it right is a question of changing how people interact with and think about AI in their work practices and routines. When implementation ignores basic human needs and biases, this means employees will resist or distrust new AI tools.
