Summary

An IBM study found that 62% of Canadian employees worry AI is eroding their skills, while 68% of Canadian human resources chiefs say workers need to supervise, check and override AI outputs. Yet just 29% of employees rank judgement as important, despite 54% of employees and 55% of human resources chiefs identifying critical thinking and framing problems as important skills in the AI era. The study surveyed 1,500 human resources chiefs and 8,800 employees globally.
