In a March poll of 255 US business leaders in the tech industry, 50% said they anticipate a combination of both layoffs and hiring during the next six months as a direct result of AI adoption, according to an April 29 report from Ernst & Young.
At the same time, 61% of leaders said emerging technology has made it more challenging to find top tech talent.
As companies move forward with AI adoption, many leaders have acknowledged that AI is already changing their organizational structure, according to a Pearl Meyer report. Leaders also said they’re developing a change management strategy and implementing communication plans to keep employees informed.
