Why would demand go up?

Yes electricians are definitely safer than those of us who work in front of a computer all day, but I don’t think AI is good for them either. First of all, more young people might try to become one, potentially crowding the sector. Second, if the rest of us are poorer we’ll also spend less in housing and other things that require an electrician.



It's more about supply going down (fewer people going into trades), which eventually affects demand for that shrinking pool.


You need electricians for data centres, at the very least.


I expect data center electrical design to go modular and maintainable in a completely automated way.
