According to Andrew Ng, there is a significant unmet demand for developers proficient in AI, while most universities have not updated their curricula to reflect the productivity gains brought by AI tools in programming roles. This disconnect is contributing to rising unemployment rates among recent computer science graduates, despite strong industry demand for AI-literate developers. Companies are actively seeking talent with hands-on AI tool experience, presenting a business opportunity for organizations and training providers to bridge this skills gap through targeted upskilling programs and AI-focused bootcamps (source: Andrew Ng, Twitter, September 4, 2025).
