Until relatively recently, having a university degree guaranteed a well -paid job. In fact, This is so In the vast majority of professional areas except if you want to dedicate yourself to ia.
According to the statements of Ryan Roslansky, CEO of LinkedIn and Executive Vice President of Microsoft Office and Copilot collected by Business Insider: “(…) The future of work will no longer be one of those who have the most prestigious titles or studied in the best universities, but to those who are adaptable, avant -garde, are willing to learn already adopt these tools.”
The “ai fluency” sweeps the titles. Traditional perception of university degrees to achieve quality job It is changing by leaps and bounds. Ryan Roslansky, CEO of LinkedIn, has made it clear that the future of the most attractive jobs will not be reserved only for those who study at the best universities.
The person in charge of LinkedIn and Copilot recalls that the essential thing today is “the disposition of professionals to constantly update and adopt new technological tools”, since the ability of adaptation and continuous learning It will be prioritized above the degrees, adding points to the “Ai fluency“That more and more professional profiles claim, in reference to the literacy in the use of AI tools in the workflow.
A mantra in the technological sector. Roslansky is not alone in his speech. Beside him, relevant figures in the development of AI such as Sam Altman, Mark Chen or Jensen Huang, have also manifested themselves in very similar terms. “You will not lose your work at the hands of an AI, but you will lose your work at the hands of someone who uses artificial intelligence,” He sentenced Huang at a conference.
Openai managers have also pointed out in that regard by stating that “it is less and less necessary to have a doctorate in AI”, contextualizing a growing demand for skills such as critical thinking for make the right questions in land where AI has not yet developed, but has a margin of expansion. In this sense, the university studies They do not guarantee that ability. Hence the insistence of the managers of these companies to reduce university degrees and value other skills.
Degree is not the same as knowledge. AI is having such a big and so fast expansion that Formative centers do not supply to train as many professionals as the sector demands. Therefore, companies do not always link the decision to hire new candidates for their Academic training in AIbut in skills and practical knowledge of AI tools to improve your performance in the position.
According to the published data By LinkedIn, job offers that require knowledge in artificial intelligence grew around 70% in the last year.
The upper titles keep counting, but they are not the only way. While technology has opened a gap in the importance of titles for specific profiles, higher education and professional training (which is also higher education) remain paths with excellent perspectives. In Spain, 46.96% of the new job offers during the last year They requested FP profilescompared to 21.4% who requested university students.
In fact, most of the new hiring in technical sectors in 2025 will be for FP titledand in technical careers, most companies already recognize that the professional path goes to know how to adapt and update, regardless of the educational route.
