America may have saved itself from being a defaulter, but the process of loss of jobs in American companies has not stopped. At the same time, about 13 thousand more jobs have been lost in May than in April. If compared with May last year, then about 4 times the jobs have been eliminated from America only in the month of May. It is clear that the recession in America has started showing its effect. Second, in the month of May, 3900 employees have lost their jobs due to Artificial Intelligence. Let us also tell you what kind of figures have come to the fore regarding loss of jobs in America.
