AI: Blessing or Curse for Job Seekers?
**AI's Double-Edged Sword: Job Seekers Face New Challenges and Opportunities** The Fortune Workplace Innovation Summit recently hosted Indeed CEO Chris Hyams, who offered a nuanced perspective on the role of artificial intelligence in reshaping the job market. Hyams stated that AI is creating both difficulties and advantages for job seekers. On one hand, the sheer volume of AI-generated content on job boards is creating a challenge for those seeking employment. "There's a lot of problems in online job forums where they're getting flooded with AI-produced content," he explained. This makes it harder for human-written applications to stand out. However, Hyams also sees the potential for AI to improve the job search process, making it easier for many to find suitable positions. He emphasized that Indeed is working hard to ensure that their AI tools are used to improve the job search experience. Hyams' balanced view of AI's impact on the job market highlights the need for careful consideration of its potential benefits and drawbacks.
