A recent research paper suggests that the increasing use of artificial intelligence in companies could lead to a decline in the collective expertise of certain professions. This is because individual companies may benefit from cutting entry-level jobs, but the long-term consequence is a loss of experienced workers. The full impact may not be apparent until 2030 to 2045, when the workforce is expected to feel the effects of missing junior talent. The implications of this trend are significant, as the erosion of expertise could have far-reaching consequences for industries and the economy.
