Generative AI job postings nearly tripled year-over-year: Indeed

Demand for generative AI-related roles soared in the last year, according to an analysis from Indeed published Thursday. Jobs with generative AI terms in the role description, while still a small number, jumped 170% year-over-year in January, Indeed analysis found.
Management consulting roles rose to the top, making up 12.4% of generative AI job titles. Machine learning engineers, software architects, data scientists and other core technology roles composed the rest of the top 10.
Though the increase in management roles “can be traced back to the hiring behavior of a select number of large employers,” it signals ongoing business demand for AI implementation services and potential increases in AI adoption, according to Cory Stahle, economist at the Indeed Hiring Lab.
