until AI starts shrinking hiring of this major’s graduates

AI already handles entry-level editing and assistant-director tasks such as rough cuts, subtitles, highlight extraction, and B-roll, so outsourced YouTube and corporate video work is shrinking first. There is no licensing to act as a buffer. The slump in film investment is driven by the economy, not AI.

Major lifespan is the time left until AI is expected to start shrinking hiring of this major’s graduates. It doesn’t mean the major will disappear or that everyone will lose their job.
