The Impact of AI on Workforce Skills: A Look Ahead

A new IBM study reveals that 40% of workers will need to reskill in the next three years due to the implementation of artificial intelligence (AI). However, the study also shows that AI is expected to augment job roles rather than replace them, with 87% of executives surveyed believing in this potential. The report emphasizes the importance of leveraging AI for personal gain and highlights the shift in required skills, with a greater emphasis on people skills such as team management and adaptability to change. Successful reskilling in technology-driven job changes can lead to a 15% revenue growth rate premium, while focusing on AI can result in a 36% higher revenue growth rate.
