Hello everyone,

Artificial intelligence is driving major changes to the job market in Indonesia : task automation, evolving job roles and rise of new skills. For expats and soon-to-be expats, this transformation may raise some key questions on professional opportunities:

Which sectors in Indonesia are being most affected by AI?

What new professional opportunities might AI create for expats?

Which skills should be highlighted to stand out in the job market?

What AI-related changes have you noticed in your own professional experience in Indonesia?

Share your insights and experience!

Thank you for your contribution.

I don't work so I can't give an answer to some of your questions. But local Indonesians are probably just as skilled with AI as foreigners and that makes it much more difficult for foreigners to find jobs here in that field. Also, I would question why a foreigner would want to work in this field in Indonesia when they stand to earn much less here than in a job in the west.
