Semiconductors and electronics
Every AI system runs on chips. Korea, Lithuania and Malaysia are all building chip industries and need engineers.
How AI changes this work
Demand for chips rises with AI. The evidence here is indirect: forecasts and national strategies rather than global job studies.
Demand is rising, and AI makes people in these jobs more productive rather than replacing them.
