No, this can’t be it, the kids are miserable just because of social media! All we need to do is ban social media and problem solved!
The old promise of entry-level work, where you find a position, learn the ropes, and make your way up, was already fading. Gen Xers and millennials can tell you that. But AI is quickening the unraveling, disrupting how young people find jobs—if they find jobs—and also what they confront when they get there. Gen Z is squinting into a fog, unsure of what’s coming, yet certain that disembodied decision-makers will have a say in it.
It couldn’t be that feeling like you have no future makes you depressed and unhappy!
