AI layoffs are the number one stated reason for job cuts in America for the fifth month in a row, and the three biggest numbers you have seen about them are wrong. In this video I pull the actual company memos and filings behind the viral Meta, Amazon, and IBM claims, and then I walk through the labor data that actually matters. Total layoffs just hit a two-year low while AI climbs as the stated reason, and companies now have a financial incentive to blame AI for cuts they were making anyway. The real damage is hiding in one specific place: workers aged 22 to 25 in AI-exposed occupations are down 16 percent while everyone older is flat or growing. So this is not the apocalypse you have been sold. It is something narrower, and if you defend against the wrong mechanism you will defend against nothing. We finish with the jobs that hold up under the evidence: the skilled trades, healthcare, and the roles where a licensed human carries the liability.
1. If AI took your job, what did you actually do all day, and could a model really do it?
2. Which jobs do you think are actually safe from AI over the next decade?
3. Would you tell a 22-year-old to enter an AI-exposed field right now?
