AI skillsets with traditional skillsets - boost income - not threatened fresh graduates entry jobs.

A youth comments on PM Lawrence Wong Young PAP.

AI steal white-collar jobs.

@Babe:

1. AI don't remove graduate entry jobs.

2. AI redefine graduate jobs - its job requirements, skillsets, descriptions, scope and depth to be in line with AI complemented entry jobs.

3. The basic skillsets of each trade from Universities and Polytechnics will still be essential. But to secure a job, graduates must be complemented by AI-driven output.

Solely relying on individual skillsets without AI - will be deem unproductive to the organisation and not able to land a job. Because through the help of AI, fresh graduates can produce a large output at a faster pace - compare to a fresh graduate coding from scratch.

Solely relying on AI to produce output - without Human oversight, value-add and QC provided by graduates train in the respective trade and skillsets will also not be employed by the business - because output produced solely by AI could be error-prone due to hallucination, insufficient layering of prompt to produce the optimal output and lack QC to spot subtle mistakes that could have been spotted by a trade-trained graduate.

@Babe:

1. AI trajectory that disrupt jobs is no different from the advent of Internet, digital economy, eCommerce that disrupt pre-computer era jobs.

2. Before the advent of computers, typist are trained to type from a typewriter. This skillsets will be the job description and skillsets expected from a fresh graduate.

3. With the advent of computers and Internet, the job description and skillsets expected from a fresh graduate are changed - and will be redefined to encompass:-

a. Ability to type from a keyboard

b Able to boot up a computer from an Operating System and operate the OS.

c. Able to launch browser to access Internet and perform Web data entry, commit digital transation and print computer output.

4. This is no different from AI era - whereby fresh graduates of Computer science for example, in addition to be able to do programming, coding, system analysis, database design, prepare test cases etc - must be able to do AI prompt, build layers of AI prompt to perform vibe coding, generate test cases, etc --- and fresh graduates then will have to do QC check of codes generated by AI vibe coding, check output of test cases, do system integration etc.

The job requirement, skillsets, job descriptions has been expanded to include AI-driven prompt, vibe coding etc - in addition to the basic skillsets of programming, coding, system analysis, database design, prepare test cases etc --- where the hybrid skillsets will greatly improve the value-add and quality of the fresh graduates (as compared to fresh graduates untrained in AI or a novice IT guy without deep knowledge in computer science).

That means fresh graduates in this hybrid AI-complemented computer science graduates - can demand higher salaries than its peer without AI-knowledge.

5. So the current youth who are AI-trained in their respective faculties is not worst off - but better off.

6. And I speak with authentic experience from employed fresh graduate who are AI-trained. They fetch higher salaries, promote faster, and take on more senior posts within a shorter time frame - due to their improve productivity complemented by AI.

@Lyingflat:Looks AI-generated with multiple hasty generalizations and no substantive example or precedent.

@Babe:Every words are human written.

And you quickly concluded that it is AI generated.

Go to each AI to try to churn out the above - ChatGpt, DeepSeek, Google Gemini, Claude, Llama, Co-pilot.

You see whether you produce the above output or not?

@Babe:To prove no cheating.

@Babe:Or to prove your doubts without ambiguity, run the 1st 3 texts on an AI detector to check whether it is AI generated text or human brain written text.

@Babe:And you mentioned hasty generalization.

Which aspects of the text is generalise?

Digital economy?

AI trained graduate high salary?

They're hard figures with real people earning those salaries - not lying flat.

@Babe:Source:-:- Google Gemini Ai

Singapore currently has approximately 214,000 tech professionals across all industries. This workforce spans a wide array of digital and IT-related roles, with high growth driven by the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI), data analytics, and cybersecurity.

@Babe:This CNA text is AI generated - hence I declare the source.

(This text is AI generated).

Singapore currently has an estimated base of over 6,000 AI and data analytics professionals.

@Babe:Source:- Google Gemini AI

Across Singapore’s six autonomous universities (NUS, NTU, SMU, SUTD, SIT, and SUSS), 88.9% of fresh graduates secure employment within six months of graduation. Out of this group, 74.4% land full-time permanent roles, while 14.5% are in part-time/temporary positions, freelancing, or waiting to start a business.

Not hasty generalization.

Not lying flat.

@Wei Liea:appreciate the info, baseline cognitive load per entry level employee increases due to ai-related tool expectation and productivity/multitasking implicit demand as well, how optimised should we expect fresh grads to be? harder and harder to be an entry level employee, what if im a low income family public school student who did not mix with the right crowd and did not pick up for example codex LLM ai vibecoding from IT class. is it my fault that I am unable to meet the 95% cognitive demand of an entry level job? if so, should my nation cater for fringe human capital that fail to reach that benchmark, as an expected probabilistic outcome, or blame them for being unable to be trained as a 95 percentile? l

@Babe:Low income public schools will not be disadvantaged.

As long as your attitude and aptitude is correct, there are many government assistance along the way to help you.

For example, I know of one that got 2 scholarships - bachelor and master - secure a top R&D job. Got high salary, promotion with good career progression.

@Babe:Watch out for this coming Parliament session Tuesday, 7 Jul 12pm.

Alot of attention will be focus on AI-complemented focus jobs, education, skill training.

I think government is very concerned and certainly ensure youth are able to be gainfully employed, reap high income and take care of youth employment.

This AI focus will not end until and unless our youth are AI competent and reap real benefits in their jobs.
