Upwork’s Strategic Embrace of AI Could Push the Stock to $25, According to Experts!

Paradoxically, the rise of generative AI has also created new freelance work to “humanize” AI output. Fiverr reported a 641% increase in demand for freelancers who can take AI-generated content and make it sound more natural and on-brand for humans – essentially, editors or copywriters who specialize in polishing AI drafts. As one Fiverr freelance writer noted, after ChatGPT’s launch she feared less work, but instead she’s getting daily requests to rewrite AI-produced text so it better resonates with people. This dynamic – AI producing content, humans refining it – exemplifies how many jobs will evolve rather than vanish. It’s a collaboration model: AI does the heavy lift on first draft or routine code, and skilled workers add creativity, judgment, and quality control. Freelancers are embracing this synergy. In fact, a newly identified persona on Upwork is the “AI-Enabled Freelancer” – professionals explicitly marketing that they use AI plus their human skill to deliver results more efficiently. About 31% of skilled freelancers already work this way, and 36% expect to do so within five years. This is a competitive advantage for them: by partnering with AI, one freelancer can take on more projects or offer faster turnaround, which in turn can increase their earnings.

From a global labor market perspective, AI is causing a reallocation of work rather than an absolute reduction. Routine, repetitive tasks (whether in accounting, customer support, basic coding, or admin work) will increasingly be handled by AI or automation – meaning those roles will either disappear or be redefined. At the same time, new tasks emerge: training the AI, maintaining it, leveraging it in creative ways for business value. Freelancers, who often have cutting-edge skills and multiple clients, are in a great position to capitalize on these emerging needs. And companies, facing a shortage of talent in AI and data science, are tapping into the global freelance talent pool to get the expertise they lack internally. Upwork’s CEO described this as an “AI value gap” in many firms – lots of AI hype, but not enough internal capability to execute – driving them to hire freelance experts to actually realize AI projects. For example, a law firm might not know how to apply generative AI safely, so they hire an Upwork freelancer to build a custom GPT-trained on their legal documents. Or a large tech company might use freelancers to evaluate and tune the outputs of their AI models. These are real cases happening now on freelance platforms, highlighting how AI adoption in industry often relies on external help.
