for your career.

Every headline redistributes opportunity. Here is who this one rewards — and how to be on the right side of it.

Your value lies in validating AI outputs and ensuring security compliance. Professionals in IT, product management, and business analysis should prioritise learning low-code platforms and AI integration strategies. Start by experimenting with Oracle APEX or similar tools to understand their limitations. Focus on upskilling in requirements engineering and governance to bridge the gap between business needs and automated solutions. This shift positions you as a critical oversight figure rather than just a technical executor.
