Young Adults Increasingly Leave Entry-Level Jobs to Launch AI-Driven Businesses
Young adults in the U.S. are increasingly leaving entry-level jobs to start their own businesses, with AI playing a significant role in this shift. Entrepreneurs like Jai Bhatia, who co-founded the AI-driven app Turnstone, exemplify this trend. Surveys show that 23% of Americans aged 18 to 34 ran businesses or side hustles in 2024, up from 19% in 2021, with Gen Z entrepreneurs notably using AI to launch ventures. This reflects both challenges in traditional job markets and opportunities presented by new technologies.
