Tech giants: AI will transform 92% of ICT jobs; we must upskill now


Google, IBM, Microsoft, SAP and other tech giants say ICT work will be transformed, and we must prepare now.

While AI will have an effect to some extent on all job roles, the consortium projects the biggest transformations to occur in business and management, design and user experience and testing and quality assurance. Looking ahead, workers across seniority levels will need to acquire skills in AI-driven competitive analysis, AI integration strategies, machine learning (ML) literacy, prompt engineering, data science and visualization and natural language processing (NLP), according to the consortium. Other skills with increasing relevance will include understanding of the product development lifecycle, agile methodologies, process improvement, predictive analytics, data management, success KPIs and statistical models.
