Who is "We" here?
I'll take a guess: Gen Z, and Gen A.
Gen Z because they went through covid during college, and now this AI boom that's completely wreaked the entry level job market.
Gen A is looking increasingly grim, unfortunately. If any of you know any school teachers, you'd know how disheartening it is to try and teach someone that has a homework and entertainment machine in their pocket at all times.
Millenials (My generation) went through everything Gen Z has and more ('08), but there was at least a few years of relative normalcy growing up. I don't know what's next, but I'm not very excited about it.

What are your concrete plans now for the 30,000 Oracle employees that have been fired because Larry got overly ambitious with AI?
"Short term" being rather loosely used? Most industrial regions have never recovered. Look at Gary Indiana, Detroit and surrounding towns, other regions that were dependant on manufacturing or mining. Most have been stagnating for decades; few have found a path back to thriving economically.
People get used to understand what generation 'name' they got from society, thinktanks and co and its not that hard to know what the younger generations are.

Astrology is just garbage.
Do not fall for it.

While surprising it should be too surprising. 1930-1945 was another example of this happening.
