Labor Market The Impact of Artificial Intelligence on Employment Skills

Abstract

AI's rapid evolution has profound effects on the labor market, influencing the levels, skills needed for jobs, and overall jobs content. This SLRs' goal is to synthesize empirical studies concerning AI and the implications of these implications on labor skills in all sectors. Between 2017 and 2025 studies identified current trends of the AI induced changes on blue collar and white collar occupations. It identifies new emerging skills needed for jobs such as data, machine learning skills and digital communication skills that the next generation of the workforce should have in the future. Also, it studies how AI induced changes is displacing the existing labor jobs and creating new, requiring high technological skills. Furthermore, it analyzes some of the barriers and challenges that the labor force faces in meeting new skill requirements by emphasizing how training centers, training programs and the education system and governments have to adapt so as to help close skills gap. The research ultimately shows how adaptative measures from the workers, employers and government are crucial to enable the new labor force to thrive under the future of AI.
