With AI adoption being the centrepiece of government policies around the world, there has been a lot of trepidation amongst job seekers about how that will impact their employability. Everyone agrees that there will be some job losses directly attributable to the adoption of AI across industries, but one is also assured that it will also create many new employment opportunities.

What exactly are these?

The primary AI roles that are expected to be in hot demand are Machine Learning Engineer, Data Scientist, Artificial Intelligence Engineer, Robotics Engineer, and Software Engineer. As a matter of fact, careers in AI are not restricted to only technically proficient people. There are quite a few new opportunities that the rapid adoption of AI has given rise to for people with non-technical skills.

One will soon be hearing a lot about AI Consultants, AI Writers, Prompt Engineers, AI Ethicists, AI Researchers, AI Compliance Officers, AI Marketing Specialists, and Social Media Strategists.
