New data from the job board Indeed finds the number of jobs that have listings with “AI” in the title has tripled from 2022 to 2026, touching 1 in 12 jobs on the site.
Since ChatGPT launched in 2022, many tech workers’ job descriptions have changed to include a greater focus on AI. But Indeed’s data shows more and more workers outside the tech sector — including those in sales, education and management — are seeing job postings that include AI in the title.
“These are job titles that have existed for years — it’s not as if employers are just hiring more AI specialists or AI engineers or AI data scientists,” said Sneha Puri, an economist at Indeed Hiring Lab, the company’s research arm. “Employers are adding ‘AI’ to the titles of jobs that now require AI tools.”
Physical therapists, for example, can browse Indeed and see a listing for a “physical therapist [AI documentation]” outlining their responsibility to use AI tools and putting them in the category of “AI-touched” jobs, Puri said. Other examples of AI-touched jobs are a part-time faculty role focused on “AI literacy” at a private college in Detroit and an AI and analytics sales specialist for a tech service provider in Mission, California.
For the job hunter, “the usage of AI in the job title is a very intentional indication by the employer that you have to use or that you will be using AI,” Puri said. “This is a skill that they should be flagging in their résumé; this is a skill that they should be working on or getting more experience in.”
That is easier said than done for job seekers, especially experienced professionals.
“When I read a job description and they are so intense on [AI] experience, I just pass it by,” said Suzanne Julien, who was laid off from her risk management job at Wells Fargo this year. Julien, who lives in Arizona and has 22 years of experience in her field, said the demand for AI skills on job postings has left her with countless unanswered applications.
The research points to the ways more non-tech employers are using AI, Puri said.
