Are we watching the ladder get pulled up? A new Harvard-linked analysis shows companies that adopt generative AI hire 7.7% fewer junior roles — a subtle shift with massive consequences for cybersecurity, tech, and the middle class. Frank Downs and Dr. Dustin Brewer break down what’s really happening: the automation sugar high, the hollowing of mid-tier careers, why experience over degree over certifications is driving gatekeeping, and how this ends if we don’t course-correct.
