LinkedIn data shows AI isn’t to blame for hiring decline… yet

LinkedIn’s Blake Lawit, the Chief Global Affairs and Legal Officer of the Microsoft-owned professional networking site, confirmed in an interview at Semafor’s World Economy summit this week that the company’s data shows a decline in hiring of around 20% since 2022.

However, he pushed back at the idea that AI was to blame.
