Two-thirds of leaders believe Gen AI will reshape entry-level jobs – Computerworld

Generative AI is on track to transform entry-level roles across industries, with 64% of leaders expecting these positions to evolve from creation to reviewing and refining results in the next three years The percentage of managers who had a similar view stood at 71%, according to new research from the Capgemini Research Institute.

The findings suggest that the traditional model of junior employees manually creating content, data or code is rapidly being replaced by generative AI, which can generate these outputs in a fraction of the time. As a result, employees in these positions will focus more on quality control, critical analysis and ensuring AI outputs meet business standards, the report added.

The findings are based on Capgemini Research Institute’s May 2024 survey of 1,500 executives and 1,000 entry-level employees from 500 organizations with more than $1 billion in revenue, to explore the generative adoption of AI.
