Arthur T Knackerbracket has found the following story:
The skills gap is widening between people and AI.
Artificial Intelligence is apparently ready to get to work. Over the next three years, as many as 120 million workers from the world's 12 largest economies may need to be retrained because of advances in artificial intelligence and intelligent automation, according to a study released Friday by IBM's Institute for Business Value. However, less than half of CEOs surveyed by IBM said they had the resources needed to close the skills gap brought on by these new technologies.
"Organizations are facing mounting concerns over the widening skills gap and tightened labor markets with the potential to impact their futures as well as worldwide economies," said Amy Wright, a managing partner for IBM Talent & Transformation, in a release. "Yet while executives recognize severity of the problem, half of those surveyed admit that they do not have any skills development strategies in place to address their largest gaps."
[...] IBM says companies should be able to close the skills gap needed for the "era of AI," but that this won't necessarily be easy. The company said global research shows the time it takes to close a skills gap through employee training has grown by more than 10 times in the last four years. That's due in part to new skills requirements rapidly emerging, while other skills become obsolete.

Didn't Dune warn us of the rise of AI ?
"Thou shalt not make a machine in the likeness of a human mind."

It is by caffeine alone, I set my mind in motion.
It is by the juice of caffeine the thoughts acquire speed,
the hands acquire shaking, the shaking becomes a warning.

People today are educated enough to repeat what they are taught but not to question what they are taught.

That explains the shared mark of the dev: Not just the shaking but the coffee and RedBull stained teeth.
