As the cost of a college degree rises significantly, professionals with AI skills may not need formal education to secure employment. The PwC 2025 Global AI Jobs Barometer indicates that demand for formal degrees is decreasing for AI-exposed jobs, which are expanding rapidly—66% faster than other roles. However, individuals without AI skills face increasing job challenges, as sectors less affected by AI are growing more rapidly. Studies by PwC and Goldman Sachs suggest AI will deeply influence job markets, raising questions about unemployment and productivity across various occupations.
Employer demand for formal degrees is declining particularly quickly for jobs exposed to AI, especially jobs more highly automated by AI.
AI-trained workers are likely to have success in several sectors, particularly Information and Communications Technology, Professional Services, and Financial Services.
Jobs less exposed to AI are growing faster than more exposed jobs.
AI will have a profound effect on the workforce.
