How worried should Americans be as AI threatens jobs?

Season 2026 Episode 76 | 7m 03s

Americans are anxious about their jobs and whether artificial intelligence is coming for them. Some prominent voices call it catastrophic, others say it's hype. The data, so far, is somewhere in between and deeply contested. Geoff Bennett spoke with Josh Tyrangiel about his recent story for The Atlantic, “America Isn’t Ready for What AI Will Do to Jobs.”
