Artificial intelligence: the ultimate disruption of the job market!
An increase in AI-related job offers
Artificial intelligence (AI) has evolved and popularized in recent years, raising questions about its impact on the job market. A recent report indicates that AI has already made a significant impact. Job postings now include positions where professionals work directly on AI development, such as specialist engineers, as well as roles where AI is considered a required skill, such as digital product managers or cybersecurity consultants.
A growing number of candidates interested in these opportunities
A study also shows that more and more job seekers are attracted to these AI-related positions. Over the past two years, jobs explicitly mentioning AI have seen a 17% increase in applications. Erin Scruggs, vice president of global talent acquisition at LinkedIn, confirms that candidates are aware of the popularity of these new professions.
ChatGPT: a skill sought after by American companies
Another report by ResumeBuilder indicates that 92% of business leaders in the United States are hiring and 91% are specifically looking for candidates with experience with ChatGPT. In addition, one in four employers would be willing to offer starting salaries exceeding $200,000 and 17% of them would go so far as to offer more than $300,000 for engineers specializing in AI prompts.
What is ChatGPT?
ChatGPT is an artificial intelligence-based technology that enables automatic text generation. This system is capable of answering questions or assisting with various editorial tasks. Its growing use in businesses highlights the growing importance of AI skills to meet the needs of the modern job market.
