The Impact of Artificial Intelligence During the Transformation of The Labor Market in Uzbekistan
Abstract
This article examines the impact of artificial intelligence (AI) technologies on Uzbekistan's labor market transformation in the context of implementing the national strategy "Digital Uzbekistan - 2030" and the Strategy for the Development of AI Technologies until 2030. Based on the analysis of statistical data, industry reviews, and regulatory legal documents, key mechanisms of AI's impact on employment structure were identified: automation of routine processes, formation of new professional profiles, and changes in requirements for employees' competencies. It is shown that in 2024-2025, the labor market of Uzbekistan is characterized by duality: on the one hand, there is an increasing demand for IT specialists and workers with digital skills; on the other hand, there is a structural shortage of qualified personnel and a gap between the education system and the needs of the economy. Recommendations for adapting employment policy to AI transformation conditions have been proposed.
