Abstract

El estudio examinó la relación entre las competencias en inteligencia artificial (IA) y la empleabilidad percibida en 317 estudiantes universitarios de la región de Junín, Perú; se aplicó un enfoque cuantitativo con diseño no experimental y modelo PLS‑SEM. Los hallazgos revelaron una influencia significativa y positiva de dichas habilidades tanto en la empleabilidad interna como en la externa. Se concluyó que el fomento de habilidades en IA refuerza la preparación profesional y mejora las perspectivas laborales en contextos educativos regionales
