"The challenge is that AI is moving faster than companies' workforce strategies, stated the report, put together by a team of BCG analysts led by Julie Bedard. "Tech workers -- being so close to AI-driven changes -- are the first to be affected," they reported. Also: AI is every developer's new reality - 5 ways to make the most of it Today, autonomous AI agents are already handling "complex, end-to-end tasks, such as coding, testing, analysis -- with human oversight," they stated."
"Another recent study released by Indeed confirmed what many ZDNET readers may already have seen firsthand: software development and other information technology jobs are the most likely to be transformed by gen AI. While an average of 46% of all jobs in all sectors are likely to be impacted to some degree by AI, these percentages jump to 81% for software development, 79% for data and analytics, 71% for IT infrastructure, and 70% for IT systems."
AI is moving faster than companies' workforce strategies, leaving tech workers among the first to be affected because of their proximity to AI-driven changes. Autonomous AI agents already handle complex, end-to-end tasks such as coding, testing, and analysis with human oversight. Software development, data and analytics, IT infrastructure, and IT systems face the highest transformation risk, with estimated impacts of 81%, 79%, 71%, and 70% respectively. Few roles face substantial replacement in the near term, yet leading tech organizations have rapidly adapted talent models for an AI-first world. AI also has potential to elevate technology professionals' roles.
