Till a few months ago, it was believed that Artificial Intelligence (AI) would eliminate the jobs of millions of people. Many big companies had banned recruitment and also reduced the number of employees. But now the picture seems to be changing. Many big American companies are starting to recruit new employees again. Companies say that AI cannot completely replace humans, but skilled employees are needed to work with it.
According to the report of The Wall Street Journal, big companies like America’s railway company CSX, Google’s parent company Alphabet, Booz Allen Hamilton and ServiceNow have told investors that they will make new recruitments in the coming time. These companies believe that to grow their business and take full advantage of new technology, not only AI but also good employees will be needed.
Along with AI, humans are also needed
Sarah Franklin, CEO of human resources (HR) platform Lattice, says that initially companies thought that AI would make the work of entry-level employees easier. But now they have understood that human brain and experience are also necessary to work with AI. Especially the demand for engineers, sales professionals and new graduates is increasing again.
Increased opportunities for junior employees
Many companies are now focusing especially on recruiting entry-level and junior employees. They believe that new employees learn AI tools quickly, bring new ideas and the cost is also relatively low. This is the reason why the recruitment environment seems to be improving compared to the last few months.
Change visible in every sector
Recruitment is not limited to just IT companies. New jobs are also emerging in sectors like transport, manufacturing, cyber security and cloud computing. Alphabet is preparing to increase the number of employees for AI and cloud business, while other companies are also adding new people to expand their business.
Still uncertain about the future
Experts say that it is not completely clear what the final impact of AI will be. While some jobs may be lost in the coming years, many new roles will also be created. At present, it is certain that despite the increasing use of AI, companies still need human talent.
What is the biggest message?
The new situation indicates that AI will work alongside humans rather than replacing them. In such a situation, for those who have new skills related to AI, job opportunities may increase more than before in the future.
