AI is beginning to impact certain jobs, especially those involving remote work and offshore outsourcing, but the overall return on AI investment remains low for most organizations.

Why it matters: AI and automation could reshape global labor markets by reducing reliance on low-wage offshore workers.

The big picture: Remote work enabled offshoring, which now faces disruption from AI-driven "reshoring" of jobs to local skilled workers.

Stunning stat: Despite $30–40 billion invested in generative AI, 95% of organizations report no return on investment.

Commenters say: Users discuss skepticism over AI actually replacing jobs, highlight the shift toward local hiring, and note limited evidence of AI's current impact.
