Is AI Really Taking Jobs?
Thursday, 12 March, 2026

AI gets blamed for a lot right now—layoffs, hiring freezes, disappearing entry-level roles. But what if it’s not the whole story? In this episode, Josh looks at the strange “low hire, low fire” job market where companies aren’t hiring much, but they aren’t laying people off en masse either. Drawing on labor data, conversations with business leaders, and a few high-profile layoffs framed as “AI transformations,” he explores why uncertainty—from tariffs to geopolitics to post-pandemic overhiring—has companies hedging instead of committing to new headcount. AI may be part of the picture, but it’s also becoming a convenient narrative for decisions that might have happened anyway.About The Job Market Sh*t ShowThe Job Market Sh*t Show: How AI Broke Hiring and What Might Be Next is an investigation into how hiring actually works now, how AI and automation have upended the process, and why the old rules no longer apply. It blends reporting, analysis, and firsthand stories from inside a labor market that’s increasingly algorithmic, opaque, and indifferent to the people moving through it—while asking what, if anything, might replace a system that no longer seems to work for humans on either side of the process.
