Impact of artificial intelligence and machine learning on jobs in logistics industry

 
 

In the article published in Maritime Gateway, Dr Rajiv Aserkar Professor & Director - DAMCO Int' Graduate Program and Area Head - Logistics and Supply Chain Management, SP Jain Global, highlights the rising demand for logistics professionals and the importance of AI and machine learning in the industry.

Although the logistics and supply chain industry are booming, Dr Aserkar believes many students are unaware of the vast career opportunities in this sector. With India investing heavily in infrastructure and digital transformation, the demand for skilled professionals is skyrocketing.
