As more employers (from Harvey Nichols to Hays Travel Agency) are identified (named & shamed) for not paying the minimum wage, often citing 'technical errors' now corrected.... we are also seeing claims (due to legal shifts) young people are *too* expensive to employ.

But, we're never told mid-level or top executives are too expensive to employ, nor that shareholders are too expensive to reward (via dividends); no, its always the low paid who must adjust!

Similarly, it seems to me that in fact so-called AI could probably do CEO work pretty well, but those jobs seem magically ringfenced from consideration.
