Changes In Hiring Patterns Thanks To AI
In our Impact of Technology on the Workplace report, only 15% of businesses claimed to have never used AI before, compared to 34% the previous year. There have been reports of hiring patterns changing as a result.
Leaders of Alphabet and Microsoft have said that AI is producing about 30% of new code on some projects, and Meta has announced that it will be relying on a class of AI-powered engineers to carry out basic bug fixes and product improvements.
Most recently, Klarna looked to have its AI assistant doing the work of around 700 employees. However, this was previously taken back, as reports of poor customer support and dissatisfaction emerged. Since then, the company has announced its intentions to provide better, “human” support.
