A study by ShanghaiTech University, released in July, concluded that 33.2% of 40.01 million job postings published in China between January and April involved tasks highly exposed to artificial intelligence. This significant percentage reveals the rapid advancement of AI in the Chinese labor market and the impact that technology is having on employment opportunities in the country.
The research shows that Chinese companies are rapidly adopting artificial intelligence tools in their operations, which is transforming the nature of available work. This movement is leaving behind workers whose skills do not align with the demands of new technologies.
The study covered a four-month period and analyzed a massive sample of job postings, offering a comprehensive view of how AI is reshaping the labor market in China. The data suggests that the technological transition is happening on an unprecedented scale in the country.
