Yet another headline that pairs job loss with AI (The Replacements edition)

 
Top headline:  TUM Partners of Excellence, 12/5/2024
Bottom headline:  Futurism, 5/20/2026

Krystal Vermes reports:
Back in 2024, the US Bureau of Labor Statistics identified 18 professions that it believed might be impacted by the “increased adoption of AI,” ranging from graphic designers to sales representatives to legal secretaries. Now, according to new data published by the bureau, it turns out that the number of people in those specific occupations did see an overall drop of 0.2 percent between May 2024 and May 2025. That’s not huge, but it’s something — and certain categories were stark, like a 4.8 percent decrease in sales reps.
