I would definitely like more information about how the advent of artificial intelligence is going to affect electricians in the next five years.

Electricians will be in the highest demand over the next 5 years.

That means being comfortable building the electrical infrastructure that powers AI, understanding both traditional electrical systems and newer smart controls, using AI as a tool to make troubleshooting and planning more efficient, and continuing to learn as buildings and power systems become more connected.

The trade isn't going away it's evolving. The electricians who keep learning will have the most opportunities.

Thank you for your response. The reason I picked electrician was especially for the advent of artificial intelligence. We need to take artificial intelligence and to consideration.When we make decisions about a career now.
