Young Workers Fear AI. They're Asking the Right Questions.

Media coverage frames young workers' anxiety about artificial intelligence as a skills gap problem. But the deeper concern is about who controls the infrastructure shaping labor markets, and young people sense it.

Desk note: The wire framed the Reuters piece on young worker anxiety as a standalone technology story—AI is scary, young people are worried, reskilling is the answer. Monexus treats the anxiety as a symptom of a governance problem: the same companies building AI also control the platforms that mediate work, and their interests don't automatically align with workers'. The structural question—who owns the infrastructure—gets less attention in the mainstream framing than it deserves.
