The bank Goldman Sachs studied people in the United States after they lost their jobs. It looked at jobs and companies to find people who probably lost work because of artificial intelligence, or AI. These computer tools can do some tasks for people.
Since 2025, this group took about one month longer to find new work than other people without jobs. They also had a higher chance of still being out of work a year later. The difference was about ten people in every hundred. Older workers took longer to find full-time work than younger workers.
Separately, some companies are hiring people again for jobs they cut because of AI. The hiring company Robert Half found examples in areas such as finance, law and health. Companies said the tools needed more help from people than they expected. AI also could not replace people's knowledge of the business.
Klarna, a company offering services to buy now and pay later, started hiring people for customer service again last year. Its boss said the company went too far with an AI chat tool to save money. Experts advise workers to ask about pay, training and future plans for AI before returning.
