Abstract
Introduction: Artificial intelligence is a technology that replaces human activities, favors business productivity and raises concerns about job losses and economic and social challenges. Method: The research uses a quantitative approach and a non-experimental study design with correlational scope. It identifies two variables: artificial intelligence (AI) and job opportunity. It evaluates students of the Adult Education Program (PFA) of the Universidad César Vallejo. Data collection was done through a virtual survey with Likert scale questions. Results: The study conducted a descriptive analysis of two variables: artificial intelligence and job opportunities. A moderate and positive correlation was observed between both variables, suggesting a significant relationship between the level of artificial intelligence and job opportunities of the respondents. Discussion: The study reveals a positive and moderate correlation between the knowledge of artificial intelligence and the perception of job opportunities. It is important to adapt to this global technology to improve employability. Conclusion: The findings support that artificial intelligence transforms society and the labor market. Although 86% of students know AI, most need more training in this field, even in areas with projected growth in AI-related employment.
