Curious if anyone felt the pressure of AI in the field? I want to stay ahead of the curve and I’m also worried about the job security of our industry. I think most of us see the seeds at our companies being planted to eventuality lean heavier into AI. I think supply chain is undervalued at most companies and would look to cut the cost their first. Has anyone looked into AI certifications or degrees? Has anyone been able to integrate AI successfully into their everyday?

Most large companies have complex systems and old ERPs that will not yet allow AI to fully integrate so I wouldn’t fear your job being replaced any time soon.

Even than strong use-cases will likely have someone stand out versus a certificate

I agree with many of the posters, it is not here yet. However, I can assure you that it is coming and it is coming quickly. I would highly encourage you to play around, build a bot/agent and experiment with automating a task that you have. I have been playing with AI a lot and I have added it to my resume and I can tell that it is getting some extra traction than I did with my other experience alone.

The ONLY advice you should ever take: Learn how to build a bot. Use your current skills and knowledge to build an AI bot.

I've seen jobs posted for "Supply Chain Analyst" and when you dive into the job description - they want someone with 'quantum', AI, engineering etc....so it appears they're gearing up for that as it also states they are looking to 'train AI' in the description. I'd say another 3-5yrs and our industry will be gone for humans.
