India has witnessed a massive spike in AI adoption. From customer service to coding, tools like ChatGPT are automating tasks fast. But is it really taking over jobs?
High-volume search queries like “Will ChatGPT replace my job?”; “Jobs threatened by AI in India”; “Future of work with ChatGPT” and many more show that job anxiety is growing among Indian professionals.
As per a Nasscom report from 2024, 69% of Indian firms are experimenting with generative AI. Automation is replacing repetitive roles, not creativity or leadership
Job profiles that are likely to be replaced include data entry, basic customer support, routine coding, AI ethics experts, prompt engineers, data scientists and UX/UI designers.
Government's Digital India and Skill India programmes now include AI modules. Companies like TCS, Infosys are reskilling 1M+ employees in AI and automation tools.
AI like ChatGPT is reshaping work, not fully replacing it. The key is to adapt, not fear. Your next career leap may depend on how well you evolve with it.
AI tools like ChatGPT are not a threat if you're ready to reskill. The future belongs to the adaptive, agile, and AI-aware.
