until AI starts shrinking hiring of this major’s graduates
Mar 24, 2028 · 545 days left

AI already handles Spanish emails, quotes, shipping documents and commercial translation, so entry-level trade-office, translation and interpreting jobs that were filled on language skills alone are expected to shrink first.

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.
