Anthropic CEO Predicts AI Could Cut 50% of Entry-Level White-Collar Jobs

  • Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei cautioned in early 2025 that artificial intelligence could disrupt up to half of entry-level positions in white-collar fields such as technology, finance, law, and consulting over the next five years.
  • This warning follows massive 2023 tech layoffs and a 50% drop in Big Tech's new graduate hiring since 2019, partly caused by AI adoption and tighter industry budgets.
  • Heather Doshay of SignalFire noted AI now performs tasks formerly done by interns and new grads, pushing experienced workers to use AI tools to increase output efficiently.
  • Amodei warned that many people do not realize the imminent impact of AI on jobs and called on both AI developers and government officials to stop downplaying the threat of widespread job losses.
  • Amodei's warning implies a need for policymakers, companies, and workers to prepare for a potential 10-20% unemployment spike and a significant labor market shift driven by AI.
