How Has AI Impacted Recent College Graduates? Why the class of “right now” is entering a different kind of job market ◼️  High-level framing The question  how has AI impacted recent college graduates  is really about timing: this cohort is stepping into work just as AI becomes baked into hiring, job design, and day-to-day tasks.

The truth is, most ideas die quietly before they ever get tested, shared, or built. Whether in your notebook, your company, or your creative process, understanding  why  ideas get buried helps you become the kind of thinker who can rescue them from the graveyard. This isn’t just about creativity—it’s about systems, courage, and execution. Let’s unpack how to start giving your ideas a real shot. The Hidden Graveyard of Innovation The average person has over 6,000 thoughts a day. Even if 1% spark potential, that’s 60 daily ideas per person.
