Investors predict that **artificial intelligence will significantly impact the workforce in 2026**, causing companies to rethink how many employees they actually need. While some hope AI will simply make people more productive, financial experts warn that businesses are planning to **cut funding for human labor** to pay for new AI tools, and some entry-level jobs are already being eliminated. Furthermore, as software becomes advanced enough to do work on its own, some executives might use AI as a **scapegoat to explain layoffs** that are actually due to past management mistakes. Despite claims that technology only removes repetitive "busy work," **fears about job security are rising** as AI begins to replace human roles rather than just supporting them.
