Recommendation
In affluent countries, the workforce is getting older and smaller — and the opposite is happening in less affluent developing economies. Advanced technologies like AI are making new work opportunities available in some areas; in other areas, jobs are being eliminated. The global workforce is going to dramatically change by 2030: Nearly half of the required job skills will at least change, or be eliminated altogether. And businesses need skilled labor pools to evolve and grow. The good news is that with AI’s help, training programs are really working, and AI also enables human resources professionals to do a better job at filling jobs.
