AI slows hiring in some roles, but demand grows for human skills
A Deloitte report indicates that while AI is transforming the job market, it is not necessarily leading to widespread job losses. Instead, certain roles that combine human skills with AI are expected to see increased demand. The report highlights a shift in hiring practices, with a slowdown in some sectors, particularly white-collar jobs, while employment overall continues to grow.
- ▪Deloitte's report identifies 82 occupations likely to be disrupted by AI, but also highlights roles that will benefit from AI integration.
- ▪Jobs that require human skills such as judgement, creativity, and empathy are expected to see stronger demand.
- ▪The report notes that hiring is slowing down in certain sectors, particularly in knowledge-based jobs, while employment overall is still growing.
