The rapid rise of artificial intelligence is significantly impacting the IT job market, particularly for entry-level positions. Financial expert D. Muthukrishnan has raised concerns about the obsolescence of coding jobs due to automation, leaving many professionals uncertain about their future. The IT sector, a cornerstone of India's economic growth, is now facing potential job losses that could hinder the prospects of fresh graduates and existing employees alike.
Muthukrishnan emphasizes that the ongoing job losses in the IT sector could exacerbate poverty and unemployment in India, a country already struggling with these issues. While some experts argue that AI may create new opportunities in fields like cybersecurity and data science, there is skepticism about whether these roles will compensate for the significant job losses in traditional IT services. The situation calls for urgent attention to job creation as AI continues to evolve.
