KPMG’s Junior Consultants Now AI Overlords, Bye Boring Slides

In a plot twist that even Elon Musk would bookmark, KPMG’s rung-junior consultants are becoming managers — not of humans, but of AI agents that crank out their soul-crushing slide decks and data slogging. Niale Cleobury, the global AI big cheese, wants juniors wielding 'nine AI agents' like digital minions—think Harry Potter meets Excel macros. KPMG’s AI advisers are still in beta stages; no one’s handing out AI overlords on day one, but there's a tantalizing carrot on the stick: juniors ditch tedious grunt work to steer strategic plans instead. Meanwhile, PwC is slashing entry-level hires by a third, apparently because AI is biting at their onboarding party. All in all, KPMG promises that AI will shape the workforce while keeping the headcount intact. Seasoned consultants can now relax as Velocity, KPMG’s AI platform, gears up to add voice commands—because who doesn’t want to bark orders at bots in business meetings? This farce of humans bossing bots could be the closest we get to feeling relevant in 2025.
