How AI will affect fashion jobs
While most companies already incorporate some form of AI in their everyday operations, the newest wave of technology (notably ChatGPT) threatens to eliminate many jobs, including those in fashion. According to Business of Fashion, platforms like ChatGPT may impact white-collar jobs in data analysis, legal, finance media and content creation. Goldman Sachs reports as many as 300 million full-time positions may be at risk. In particular, low-stakes or repetitive tasks like taking measurements or entering garment specifications into a database can be easily handled by AI. The most promising solution, according to experts, is to use artificial intelligence to complement employees' daily performance. {Business of Fashion}

The viral fashion of Rauw Alejandro's "Saturno" tour
Puerto Rican singer Rauw Alejandro (who also happens to be engaged to Rosalía) is experiencing a viral fashion moment on his '90s-inspired, house-infused "Saturno" world tour. When Alejandro announced the tour, TikTok flooded with users showing off retro futurist outfits they plan to wear to the concert. "I started seeing all these TikToks of people like, 'Outfit ideas for Rauw Alejandro concerts,'" Alejandro told Tess Garcia for Harper's Bazaar. Now, the hashtag #SaturnoOutfits has a whopping 12 million views. While the star wasn't too concerned with fashion at the beginning of his career, he soon realized the power clothing has in bolstering an artist's image. Alejandro leans into '90s nostalgia with electric blue hair and wears groovy, retro-meets-galactic outfits for his shows. {Harper's Bazaar}

The proposed settlement will be paid out over 25 years through a subsidiary trust made possible through the Johnson & Johnson bankruptcy deal. {The New York Times}
