  "account": "Young people in the US are increasingly anxious and angry about the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) on their job prospects. Data from the Federal Reserve Bank of New York shows that unemployment among young university graduates (aged 22-27) has risen above the overall unemployment rate, a trend that began in 2022 with the launch of ChatGPT. In Germany, university graduates aged 25-29 also have a slightly higher unemployment rate than the overall population, according to Eurostat. Experts, including Enzo Weber from the Institute for Labor Market and Vocational Research (IAB) and Virginia Sondergeld from job platform Indeed, attribute this trend to a combination of factors, including a lack of new job openings and the impact of AI on certain industries.",
