Coursera (COUR) shares fell nearly 3% following remarks by co-founder Andrew Ng highlighting urgent AI reskilling needs in India. The drop reflects market concerns about workforce readiness as automation accelerates.

Ng, a leading AI researcher, warned India's $280B IT services sector risks job displacement without rapid upskilling. Limited data on the country's AI skills gap complicates mitigation efforts.

Enterprise demand for specialized AI training may grow as companies deploy internal AI agents, creating long-term opportunities for education platforms despite short-term volatility.
