Listen "AI Exposure and the Shifting Labor Market Landscape"

Episode Synopsis

In this episode of Buzz to Business, we explore how Artificial Intelligence—especially Large Language Models—is transforming the job market faster than policymakers can keep up. Drawing from cutting-edge studies using O*NET and ADP payroll data, we unpack evidence showing job declines among young, entry-level workers in AI-exposed roles like software development. But the story isn’t all doom and disruption. The EPOCH framework (Empathy, Presence, Opinion, Collaboration, Human Connection) highlights a new frontier of human advantage—skills that machines can’t replicate and that employers are starting to prize. From plumbers and electricians to counselors and creatives, emotional intelligence and hands-on problem-solving are emerging as the economy’s safest harbors. Tune in as we decode the balance between automation and human ingenuity, and why your next career move might depend on what robots can’t do.
