In 2026, artificial intelligence will continue to transform the job market and influence how people work, are hired and plan their careers. Companies are increasingly using AI in recruitment processes and everyday work, making basic AI skills and adaptability important qualifications.
Instead of destroying jobs en masse, AI is shifting many roles towards tasks that require human judgement, creativity and strategic thinking. In some industries, demand for entry-level positions is declining, while new jobs related to the development, deployment and control of AI are emerging. Experts advise continuous learning and actively working with AI. Flexibility is thus becoming a decisive advantage.
