AI Takes Jobs. Byron Builds Them.

AI Takes Jobs. Byron Builds Them.

We've all heard how AI has been eliminating entry level jobs. Byron V. Garrett has a different story to tell. He's a Time Magazine Visionary Honoree and CEO of Genesys Works, and he runs a draft day. Not for football. Not for basketball. For high school students from the most underserved zip codes in the country, drafted by JP Morgan, Target, Deloitte, and 240 other companies across 9 cities. Seventy five percent of these students start earning more than one of their parents, sometimes both, for internships while they're still in high school. Ninety percent go on to college. Since 2002, more than 14,000 kids have come through this pipeline. This isn't the AI story you've been told. There's no doomsday. No dystopia. Just proof that the right training turns kids who might be overlooked into in-demand hires.
