    Naukri JobSpeak data: AI/ML roles surged 31% year-over-year in August. GCC recruitment grew 10%—a meaningful gap that signals where talent velocity is concentrating.

    The math: specialized tech roles are outpacing general GCC hiring. Means competition for AI/ML profiles is intensifying, but broader capability centre roles remain steady.
