Workers in the AI sector prioritize health and well-being, workplace flexibility, and a sense of belonging over high salaries, according to a McKinsey report. While many industries see decreasing quit rates, 51% of AI workers still plan to leave their current jobs, with burnout levels significantly higher than in other sectors. The rapid integration of AI in businesses, like Google and IBM, is leading to significant job cuts as companies focus more on automation and AI development. This trend is expected to continue, with AI tools increasing productivity but reducing the need for large engineering teams. There's a growing concern that reliance on AI could diminish critical and creative thinking skills, making workers less relevant. However, the future will favor those who can think critically, creatively, and compassionately despite the growing dependence on AI.
