As artificial intelligence (AI) takes over many entry-level tasks, early career roles are becoming harder to find and land, with postings declining by 35% since 2023. This decrease has created an experience gap. Entry-level candidates lack the skillset employers are looking for and at the same time, traditional pathways to gain those skills are disappearing. For years, entry-level roles were the natural starting point for a career. But in reality, they served a deeper purpose. These roles were how new graduates learned to operate in the workforce, providing an opportunity to gain and practice skills, contribute to business outcomes and…

In the 1980s, Big Tobacco started playing a major role in America’s food industry, buying up companies like General Foods, Kraft, and Nabisco. And that role, according to a new study, included using R&D from the cigarette business to make ultra-processed foods, such as the enduringly popular Lunchables brand of kid-friendly prepackaged meals and snacks. Such foods, the study reveals, were engineered “for consumer pleasure and appeal” with help from cigarette-related research on flavor engineering, packaging developments, and more. The study was recently published in the American Journal of Public Health. It’s one article in an entire issue focused on…

For most of the world who grew up watching Sesame Street, Elmo is a lovable and, importantly, uncontroversial figure with a (somewhat annoying) laugh. For New Yorkers, the Muppet’s latest tweet makes him a traitor. The New York Knicks have earned a spot in the NBA Finals for the first time since 1999, a feat that has turned the city upside down with excitement. But as Game 1 approached on June 3—with the subway entrance by the team’s home court at Madison Square Garden painted orange and blue—an unexpected character chimed in with a nod to sportsmanship that Knicks fans…

A 2026 Gallup–Walton Family Foundation survey found Gen Z’s excitement about AI has dropped 14% since 2025, and nearly half of working Gen Zers now believe AI’s risks in the workforce outweigh its benefits. At the same time, schools are buying AI tools at remarkable speed, often with little independent evidence about how…
