The Future of Jobs in the Age of Artificial Intelligence explores one of the most urgent questions of the 21st century-what will work look like when machines outperform humans in efficiency, precision, and speed? Written from the dual perspective of a doctoral researcher in Business Administration and an IT professional with over two decades of coding and technology experience, this book is both a deeply researched academic study and a grounded, real-world examination of AI's growing footprint across industries.
Across 21 comprehensive chapters, the book challenges the oversimplified narrative that "software engineers will be obsolete" and instead reveals a far more complex reality: job scarcity will increase across all sectors, not just tech. From AI-assisted software engineering to cashierless retail, robotic waiters, autonomous trucking, dark warehouses, and AI-driven customer support, the book documents real-world deployments already transforming workforces today. Case studies from companies like Dell, Walmart, McDonald's, Outrider, Shamrock Foods, and Xiaomi illustrate how automation is compressing teams, redefining skill sets, and creating both new opportunities and unprecedented challenges.
The author dissects misconceptions in corporate leadership, addresses the psychological and societal toll of rapid automation, and examines educational reforms and policy measures-such as Universal Basic Income-that may be necessary to maintain stability. By weaving together industry data, academic research, personal observations, and tangible case studies, this book offers a nuanced roadmap for navigating the coming decades of technological upheaval. Whether you are a policymaker, business leader, technologist, educator, or concerned citizen, The Future of Jobs in the Age of Artificial Intelligence equips you with the insights needed to understand, adapt to, and help shape a future in which human-AI collaboration is not only possible but essential.
