FAQs

What type of job will be available in the near future? What jobs will be replaced by AI?

TL;DR: AI will replace tasks, not entire jobs — but expect churn. Roles blending human judgement, problem-solving, and creativity will rise.

🔍 What NZ data tells us: MBIE’s 2022 “Future of Work” report projected that digital skills will underpin two-thirds of all jobs in NZ by 2030. Treasury has warned that Aotearoa faces a “digital productivity lag,” meaning the demand for digitally capable workers is far outstripping supply.

Jobs like Full Stack Developer, UX Designer, Business Analyst and Data Analyst are evolving rapidy to take advantage of the productivity gains from AI-Powered solutions. There will always be a need for a person to check the work product, as AI can hallucinate.

 Jobs under pressure:

  • Repetitive back-office roles (data entry, basic bookkeeping).
  • Some front-line customer service (basic call handling, FAQ support).
  • Junior content production (low-tier copywriting, image generation).
    Entry-level software QA and dev roles that don’t involve much system thinking.

“Don’t ask will my job be replaced by AI. Ask which part of my job will be — and what I can learn to keep ahead.”
