AI impact on this career
AI is automating low-level documentation and data synthesis tasks, reducing demand for junior BAs who only 'write specs.' However, it is amplifying demand for senior BAs who can validate AI-generated outputs, define complex requirements for AI integration projects, and act as a strategic bridge between business stakeholders and data science teams. The role is shifting from pure requirements gathering to AI-informed analysis and decision framing.
