People are gradually accepting this new normal and prefer to shop online rather than going to a store to buy their clothes, groceries, and so on. According to a United Nations Conference on Trade and Development report, COVID-19 increased online shopping, with the global e-commerce market increasing to $26.7 trillion. Another effect of the COVID-19 is that it has accelerated the world's rate of automation. As a result, many businesses are gradually allowing the implementation of artificial intelligence technologies to improve their business processes. This implies that the demand for Data Analysts and Data Scientists will rise in the coming years. The coronavirus has greatly altered the way we live our lives, and most people now believe that we will never return to normalcy; rather, we will have to adjust to the 'new normal.' Indeed, according to the World Economic Forum's Future of Jobs Report, the most in-demand roles in future job markets will be Data Analysts and Scientists, AI and Machine Learning Specialists, Robotics Engineers, Software and Application Developers, Digital Transformation Specialists, and so on, with Data Analysts and Scientists at the top of the list. As a result, both roles appear to have a lot of potential, and you should feel comfortable choosing either one.
