Where AI Works: Conversations at the Intersection of AI and Industry · How AI is Reshaping Skills, Hiring, and Education · 26 Mar 2026 podcast

You know, just stepping back, we started on a journey with Eric and WAI AI in just exploring, you know, the broader implications of AI on enterprises and businesses.

And one of the themes that immediately emerged that we were very like-minded around was the impacts on talent.

We wanted to step back and really look at this from a different lens, in particular a skill lens.

So at a top line level, we took very simply 150 million people profiles and compared them to a hundred million job postings anchored to the Bureau of Labor Statistics and some of their data since uh twenty twenty-two.

We also had to do some work and use AI to group skills because it's quite a complicated landscape of over thirty-three thousand skills.

So we created skill clusters, about two thousand.

Of them.

And really, we analyzed the supply and demand of those and what that looked like in the marketplace.

So we treated it as a supply and demand, a skill market.

And we also then extrapolated that into wage impacts using machine learning.

So there were three core findings to the research.

The first is a demand finding, and that there's generally a demand for more specialized skills.

Employers are increasingly.

Demanding and rewarding, what we would call specialized and even execution-oriented skills, and we can get into what that means, but that over general skills.

So that was finding number one.

Finding number two was this notion of role-specific economics.

So really what we're saying there is we're not saying any skill is good or bad, but certainly in the context of a specific role, some skills are valued more than others.

And some skills actually in the context of role can.

Can actually be devalued, if you will, and negatively impact salary or pay.

And then lastly, we applied a sort of a time series to the data because we wanted to really look at what is the impact of AI when AI came on the scene and what what is happening.
