According to experts, along with the rapid growth of AI technology, a lot of new jobs will be created during this process. That’s why the Economic Times has had a talk with some experts in its Technology Talent Equilibrium panel.

These experts included the NextWealth Entrepreneurs founder Sridhar Mitta, the Wipro Technologies Vice President Supriyo Das, and the Intel India’s Managing Director Prakash Mallya. They all think that automation and AI are two of the major reasons for a net decrease in employment.

Accordingly, for every 100 job positions, there will be about 10 new jobs relating to artificial intelligence. Besides, creating new jobs is likely to take much more time than making certain jobs disappear. It’s also worth noting that companies will need a certain duration to train qualified labor forces in AI fields.
