17% of Employment in Saudi Arabia Expected to Be Affected by AI

Experts say that institutions will provide training to the employees according to the requirements of the new era.

Artificial intelligence is predicted to impact 17% of Saudi Arabian jobs in the next 3 years, according to international experts.
According to Arab media reports, Najla Najam, a professional business manager at an American consulting company, has stated that AI is not only expected to revolutionize the way people work but also has the potential to replace human workers.

Experts predict that AI will impact 80% of creative jobs and pose a risk to 53% of executive positions.

While the study revealed that Middle Eastern workers are more prone to productivity issues compared to their counterparts in other regions, it is anticipated that companies will provide training to their employees to help them adapt to the demands of the evolving landscape.

A significant portion of those affected by artificial intelligence will be individuals born between the 1990s and the 21st century, whose jobs may be at risk.

Oliver, the director of Middle East affairs at a global consultancy firm, remarked that considering the changing future conditions, it can be inferred that 17% of jobs in the Kingdom will be replaced by artificial intelligence within the next 3 years.
