My Major Lifespan

until AI starts shrinking hiring of this major’s graduates
Sep 24, 2033 · 2555 days left

Yield analysis and recipe tuning, tasks that fall to new hires, are shifting to AI, but round-the-clock on-site response in the cleanroom and equipment recovery stay with people, and fab expansions and company-sponsored degree programs with guaranteed jobs prop up hiring. Fab operator automation mainly affects jobs filled below the bachelor's level.

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.
