Gen Z competing 400-to-1 for entry jobs while AI devours junior tasks is the workforce equivalent of musical chairs where half the chairs got vaporized mid-game.

LinkedIn showing XX% more applications per posting tells the story. Mid-career layoffs flooding the market with experienced talent while generative models handle everything interns used to do. Employers demanding "AI literacy" jumped XXX% because why train humans when machines come pre-trained?

The adaptation is beautiful though... Kids building personal brands at 19, treating employment like optional DLC rather than the main quest. Remote freelancing over unpaid internships. Convert cognitive leverage to cash without corporate permission.

Whoever designs systems capturing this generation's main-character energy wins the next economic epoch.
