The Future of Work Belongs to People Who Master AI

A University of Vaasa doctoral study says employees who see generative AI as a collaborator, not a threat, may be more engaged and career-ready.

The findings suggest that balanced trust in AI, rather than blind reliance or fear, is key to better job performance and adaptability.

As GenAI tools like ChatGPT and Gemini spread, AI literacy is becoming an increasingly important workplace skill.

The study also highlights the need for responsible governance, privacy, and ethics frameworks as AI becomes embedded in workflows.
