  "account": "Berlin – Young people in the United States are increasingly expressing fear and anger about artificial intelligence (AI), as evidenced by videos showing graduates leaving the podium upon hearing AI-related remarks. The cost of a university education in the US can range from tens of thousands to hundreds of thousands of dollars, and the fear that this investment may not yield returns is significant. Unemployment among young graduates is on the rise, with many attributing this to the changes brought about by AI in the labor market. However, not all fields are equally affected. The Handelsblatt analyzed job market data from both the US and Germany, revealing which subjects are most impacted by AI disruption, which fields still remain in high demand, and how over 23,000 study disciplines in Germany can choose the most promising options.",
