StatCan finds little evidence AI is behind the decline in youth hiring
A Statistics Canada study found "no broad evidence" that AI has substantially cut hiring since November 2022, including for young workers and jobs seen as easier to automate.
Low AI exposure
4% to 3.3%
Higher AI exposure
3.2% to 3%
Hiring of workers aged 15 to 29 fell in jobs with low and high exposure to AI alike.
We have a lot of competing economic forces out there.
— Tahsin Mehdi, Statistics Canada economist
