High school students express career concerns over AI

High school students in the Bay Area are expressing growing anxiety regarding the impact of artificial intelligence on their future careers. At a recent California State University college fair in Oakland, students shared concerns that rapid AI development could undercut job prospects in various fields, such as architecture.

Students noted a difficult dilemma: while using AI for schoolwork may hinder the learning process, avoiding the technology entirely could result in being left behind by peers. Educational institutions, including the CSU system, are currently working to prepare students for a workforce that will likely be reshaped by these technological advancements.
