D'INNOCENZIOSun, September 28, 2025 at 2:51 PM GMT+2 6 min readBENTONVILLE, Ark (AP) — As artificial intelligence and demographic changes reshape the U.S. job market, the nation's largest private employer is trying to identify the skills its workers and the broader labor force might need for the future.Walmart (WMT) on Thursday hosted more than 300 workplace experts and representatives from other companies participating in the Skills-First Workforce Initiative, a project to develop and fill stable jobs based on what people know how to do instead of whether they attended college.The retailer already has launched its own employee training and certification programs to meet Walmart's need for truck drivers and maintenance technicians, two roles for which U.S. companies say they can't recruit fast enough as experienced tradespeople retire.Walmart says it plans to offer a similar AI skills program next year through a new collaboration with OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT.The Associated Press sat down with Walmart CEO Doug McMillon at the company's sprawling headquarters in Bentonville, Arkansas, to talk about AI and the American workforce. The interview has been edited for clarity and length.AP: What's your view of the overall health of the job market, given the uncertainty about tariffs and the economy?MCMILLON: I would say pretty much a steady state. Turnover numbers are coming down. I'm remembering what happened during the pandemic and relative to that experience, things feel much more stable now. I think the pace of change in the employment market is just smaller and easier to manage.AP: What are the biggest factors affecting Walmart workers? Fear of AI, or their paychecks not keeping pace with inflation?MCMILLON: We continue to invest in wages. So I think that’s helping some, and that process will continue. As it relates to AI and the future of employment, I think for the most part, our folks are enthusiastic about it because they’ve seen new tools that they’re receiving that are making their jobs better. That's helping them take fewer steps.And our sales are growing so much. I think people are optimistic about the future of what their life can look like.AP: Which jobs might be eliminated or added because of AI?MCMILLON: I think no one knows how this is going to play out exactly. And the way it feels to me is that basically every job gets changed. And I think the best way to think about it is getting “plussed up.” So how can I lean in the role that I have, regardless what that role is, to adopt new tools, leverage them and make things better than they would’ve otherwise been?Terms and Privacy PolicyPrivacy & Cookie SettingsMore InfoS&P Futures6,711.50 -2.00 (-0.03%)Dow Futures46,602.00 -10.00 (-0.02%)Nasdaq Futures24,824.00 -13.75 (-0.06%)Russell 2000 Futures2,449.80 -1.00 (-0.04%)VIX16.12 +0.83 (+5.43%)Gold3,866.10 +10.90 (+0.28%)PortfolioSign in to access your portfolioSign inTop gainersWOLF Wolfspeed, Inc. 22.10 +20.89 (+1,726.45%)MRUS Merus N.V. 93.67 +24.78 (+35.97%)GRAL GRAIL, Inc. 58.77 +8.91 (+17.87%)SNDK Sandisk Corporation 113.50 +16.38 (+16.87%)ETSY Etsy, Inc. 74.34 +10.16 (+15.83%)Top losersMENS Jyong Biotech Ltd. 50.00 -9.74 (-16.30%)CART Maplebear Inc. 37.92 -4.40 (-10.40%)FORD Forward Industries, Inc. 26.51 -2.72 (-9.31%)PGY Pagaya Technologies Ltd. 31.76 -2.88 (-8.31%)UPST Upstart Holdings, Inc. 52.74 -4.60 (-8.02%)Most activeTLRY Tilray Brands, Inc. 1.8500 +0.7000 (+60.87%)SNAP Snap Inc. 8.40 +0.13 (+1.57%)NVDA NVIDIA Corporation 181.85 +3.66 (+2.05%)OPEN Opendoor Technologies Inc. 8.20 -0.61 (-6.92%)INTC Intel Corporation 34.48 -1.02 (-2.87%)Earnings eventsMy earnings eventsEarnings eventsTrending tickersWOLF Wolfspeed, Inc. 22.10 +20.89 (+1,726.45%)TLRY Tilray Brands, Inc. 1.8500 +0.7000 (+60.87%)HOOD Robinhood Markets, Inc. 136.72 +14.94 (+12.27%)PYPL PayPal Holdings, Inc. 69.68 +2.38 (+3.54%)ETSY Etsy, Inc. 74.34 +10.16 (+15.83%)Top economic events
