  • The 55,000 Job Paradox: Why AI Is Both Killing and Creating Entry-Level Roles

    Here's a number that should stop you in your tracks: 55,000. That's how many jobs were explicitly attributed to AI layoffs in 2025—twelve times higher than two years ago.

    But while some companies are cutting, Cognizant just announced they're hiring 24-25,000 fresh graduates, crediting AI as the reason they can hire more.

    Today's episode explores:

    • The AI jobs paradox: replacement vs. amplification
    • Why 40% have adopted AI but only 18% track ROI (Thomson Reuters 2026)
    • How companies without metrics default to headcount cuts
    • The Cognizant model: AI as capability multiplier
    • What HR leaders can do to be on the right side of this equation
