Artificial Intelligence (A.I.) is the Engineering and Science of making Intelligent Machines and Intelligent Computer Programs. It develops Intelligence in Machines and enables them to think like Humans. The study was conducted to find out level of awareness about artificial intelligence among youth and its impact on employment. From the study it was found that artificial intelligence is career threatening and the youth shows a negative attitude towards it. As a result of development of artificial intelligence the employment sector now demands more technological skills from the employees. It was found that majority of the respondents are of the opinion that artificial intelligence will replace the human workers in the near future. It is evident from the secondary analysis that low skilled jobs are at risk due to artificial intelligence, because the replacement is more in low skilled jobs as compared to high skilled jobs. It can be conclude that , demand of skilled jobs is on the rise and there might be a temporary shortage of skilled labor but if the current pace of development in education and retraining continues it will be resolved soon.
