Exclusive: Stanford and ADP have new payroll data on Gen Z women losing ground to men in the job market—and AI isn’t the main culprit
Young women are falling behind young men in the entry-level job market — but it’s not primarily artificial intelligence that’s to blame, according to the researchers behind one of the country’s most closely watched labor-market trackers.
AI Summary
Young women are falling behind young men in entry‑level hiring, a trend that researchers say is not mainly driven by artificial intelligence. The finding comes from new data released to Fortune from the “Canaries Dashboard,” a joint Stanford Digital Economy Lab and ADP Research project led by Erik Brynjolfsson and Nela Richardson. The dashboard tracks how generative AI is reshaping entry‑level jobs. Since ChatGPT’s late‑2022 debut, workers aged 22‑25 in highly AI‑exposed roles such as software development and customer service have seen declining employment growth, while overall U.S. employment growth has remained healthy. The gap has widened by roughly half a percentage point per month since the researchers’ original paper last year.
