  "account": "The increasing use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in companies is associated with poorer job prospects for young professionals, according to an analysis by the Ifo Institute. The institute's new AI early indicator, which measures the impact of AI on the job market, found that full-time employment among 20- to 24-year-olds in AI-exposed professions has decreased by 14% since 2022. Professions with a high proportion of easily automatable tasks, such as data entry and text processing, software developers, and accountants, are among those most affected. However, Ifo President Clemens Fuest notes that there is no broad job loss due to AI yet, but rather a change that young people entering the workforce are experiencing firsthand. The employment in AI-exposed professions has actually grown by 1.8% since 2022, while it decreased by 6.4% in non-exposed professions.",
  "summary": "Many experts view AI as a groundbreaking development that will fundamentally change the working world and society. According to the Ifo, there is a first striking development on the job market.",
