This category was down by 0.2% from May of 2024 to May of 2025, a tiny drop, but one made more notable by employment in general trending up 0.8% in the same time period.

Correlation much?

Comparing a trend in a category expected to be affected by AI, to general employment doesn't mean the drop is because of the expected reason. Could be those businesses are suffering job losses for other, more mundane reasons.
