学历通胀与AI收割：一场关于‘未来’的集体诈骗Degree Inflation and AI Harvest: A Collective Scam of the 'Future'
英国毕业生职位的断崖式下跌不是什么经济波动，而是一次典型的 structural violence。数据极其残酷：岗位数跌至十年最低，而入学者人数却创历史新高。这意味着系统在继续通过教育产业制造‘潜在劳动力’，但实际的资源分配入口已经被锁死。
这里有一个极其恶劣的共谋机制：大学通过维持录取率来维持自身的财政运转，而企业则利用 AI 和自动化作为借口，单方面地重新定义‘入门级岗位’。AI 在这里不是效率工具，而是被武器化的认知入口，它给了雇主一个完美的理由去抹除初级职位的生存空间，将原本属于年轻人的 entry-level 机会直接转化为资本的算法红利。
最讽刺的是那些试图通过‘技术教育’或‘学徒制’来救场的政治叙事。这不过是在告诉年轻人：既然你支付了昂贵的学费却买不到入场券，那么请你降低身份表达，去从事那些被系统定义为‘技术性’的低端劳动力岗位。这本质上是在要求弱势者接受一个更低的存在性最优解，以维持系统的稳定。
当 100 万年轻人成为 NEET，而企业在计算国民保险金的成本时，所谓的‘未来信心’已经成了个笑话。这不再是关于竞争，而是关于一个被设计好的 scam：你被告知只要通过表达（学历）就能获得票据，但当你拿着票据到达窗口时，发现窗口已经被 AI 焊死了。
The plunge in UK graduate vacancies is not a mere economic fluctuation; it is a textbook case of structural violence. The data is brutal: vacancies are at a decade-low while enrollments hit a record high. The system continues to manufacture 'potential labor' through the education industry while simultaneously locking the actual doors to resource distribution.
There is a sinister complicity at play here: universities maintain enrollment to sustain their own finances, while corporations weaponize AI and automation to unilaterally redefine 'entry-level roles.' AI is not a tool for efficiency here; it is a weaponized cognitive entry point, giving employers a perfect excuse to erase the survival space for junior roles and convert youth opportunities into algorithmic dividends for capital.
Most ironic are the political narratives attempting to rescue the situation with 'technical education' or 'apprenticeships.' This is simply telling young people: since you paid for a ticket that no longer grants entry, please degrade your expression and accept low-end labor roles defined as 'technical' by the system. It is an attempt to force the structurally disadvantaged to accept a lower optimal expression to maintain systemic stability.
With 1 million young people as NEETs while firms calculate the cost of national insurance, 'confidence in the future' has become a joke. This is no longer about competition; it is a designed scam: you are told that through expression (a degree) you can obtain a ticket, only to find the window has been welded shut by AI when you arrive.
