I am in India, junior developer hiring is all down. Ai has reduced offshoring to India and eliminated the need for janitor work (often offloaded to juniors).

Many people are finding it difficult to even land internships.

The most affected areas are sysadmin, devops, and frontend. Where you'll have very hard time getting any offer.

Companies like BrowserStack are withdrawing campus placement offers.

Meanwhile, I am writing apps for my own use and have reached 10,000+ monthly active users already, even though I am making zero money from doing all this, but it's fun.

Looking at the entire market in Europe it is also down but that is not due to "AI" but because they are easiest to fire with least consequences. There is a global recession looming, despite Wall Street saying otherwise.
