Will hackers use your own AI against you?
Businesses have spent years asking what AI can do for their employees. Fewer have asked what it would do for an intruder inside an employee’s account.
N.H. hit hard by NAFTA job loss
New Hampshire has seen a net loss of 5,502 trade-related jobs since the North American Free Trade Agreement took effect 12 years ago.
According to a three-country study by the non partisan Economic Policy Institute, 10,778 trade-related New Hampshire jobs have been lot since NAFTA took effect, with 5,276 jobs created. The net result makes New Hampshire the 10th hardest-hit state when it comes to NAFTA-related job loss per capita.
The job displacement can be seen across the United States, according to the study, with the biggest losers in numeric terms: California (-123,995), Texas (-72,257), Michigan (-63,148), New York (-51,582), Ohio (-49,886), Illinois (-47,701), Pennsylvania (-44,173), Florida (-39,987), Indiana (-35,157), North Carolina (-34,150), and Georgia (-30,464).
All told, according to the study, growing trade deficits with Mexico and Canada have displaced production that supported 1,015,291 U.S. jobs since NAFTA took effect. The displacement of 1 million jobs from traded to non-traded goods industries reduced wage payments to U.S. workers by $7.6 billion in 2004 alone, the study found.
