AI agents will replace human employees unless companies make a major effort to upskill their workers, says the majority of business leaders

Companies are scrambling to present artificial intelligence agents in the workflow in a quick section. But workers fear that this technical revolution may actually lead to their professional demise, and a new study shows that they have a good reason for anxiety.

About 87 % of business leaders believe that artificial intelligence agents will solve workers unless companies are ready to benefit from their employees, according to the Administrative Consulting Company in the latest survey of the pulse of artificial intelligence in AI. This includes providing additional training, creating new goals or even changing their roles.

“Our customers can no longer ask” if “artificial intelligence will turn their business, they ask” the extent of the speed “that can be published.” “This is not only related to technology adoption, but rather a basic transformation of business that requires re -imagining how to do the work and how to measure it.”

The deployment of artificial intelligence agents through organizations has doubled three times since the fourth quarter of last year, according to the report. About 82 % of business leaders believe that artificial intelligence agents will become valuable shareholders during the next year, and the same number believes that these agents will change the business scene completely in the next two years.

Executive presidents have recently become bolder saying that artificial intelligence can lead to smaller human workplaces. The CEO of Anthropor said earlier this year that artificial intelligence could eliminate half of the entry level roles. The CEO of the Duolingo language learning application in April told April that they can only employ a new person if they prove that the task cannot be done with artificial intelligence. Meta recently announced plans to replace up to 90 % of its human employees who review the privacy of the platform and societal risks with artificial intelligence.

Climited employees may be easier than doing it. While two -thirds of the leaders expect employees to update their skills in artificial intelligence, only third say that the companies for which they work provide policies on how to use technology, according to the recent research from Talent Convisory The AdecCo Group. A separate study on the administrative consulting company Oliver Wayman found that although 79 % of workers want to train artificial intelligence, only 57 % say that these efforts made by their company were insufficient.

“As employers, we take responsibility to help prepare existing and future workers to move to a new era of work,” Wilwaj Saco, head of the KPMG workforce. “Investments in managing change around man, modern methods of learning, pre -emptive models, and new human cooperation models are necessary to abolish the long -term return on artificial intelligence investments.”
