The global AI market is set to grow from $757B in 2025 to nearly $3.7T by 2034, expanding at a 19% CAGR. Even as demand skyrockets, the factor that is proving to be the critical bottleneck is talent.

The AI talent crunch
|
|
The U.S. remains the innovation hub for AI, but the skills gap is widening at an alarming rate
|
|
|
-
AI/ML job postings grew 61% in 2024, compared to just 1.4% for all jobs
-
Median salaries exceed $150,000, yet positions remain unfilled
-
85% of openings are for mid-to-senior professionals such as AI Solutions Architects, Data Science Directors, ML Engineers
-
The White House AI Talent Report (2025) confirms graduate output still lags behind real-world demand
-
Employers now seek applied AI skills such as deployment, governance, scaling. Beyond academic expertise.
|
|
|
|
This imbalance has created a 50% global hiring gap in AI talent by 2025.
|
|
|
|
India is the new AI frontier
|
|
|
| India has emerged as the world’s most scalable and immediately deployable AI talent hub. Recent moves by OpenAI, Anthropic, and Perplexity: all expanding their hiring footprint in India underscore this shift.
-
A 416,000+ strong AI talent pool, second largest globally
-
Elite engineering institutions (IITs, NITs) fueling advanced AI research and application
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
While Japan, South Korea, and Eastern Europe face demographic or economic barriers, India offers a uniquely sustainable combination of skill depth, scalability, and speed to deploy.
|
|
|
|
OpenAI’s initial hiring in India focuses on sales and partnerships, but future plans clearly include core product and engineering roles in Bengaluru, Hyderabad, and Delhi-NCR
|
|
|
|
The message is clear: India is no longer just the global back office but the AI brain for the world
|
|
|
|
What this means for global organizations
|
|
The new strategy requires blending global capability with local execution. To stay ahead, enterprises must:
|
-
Define clear AI use cases with measurable ROI
-
Invest in data governance and readiness
-
Upskill internal teams while tapping borderless talent hubs
-
Pilot, then scale AI programs responsibly
-
Embed responsible AI frameworks to ensure compliance and trust
|
