Description
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies are increasingly embedded within our societies and workplaces offering opportunities but also creating systemic skill gaps and demands for new, specialised capabilities. The systemic transformation brought about by AI poses challenges across multiple levels. For individuals, there is a need to enhance skills in order to thrive in today’s AI-mediated workplaces and in the labour market of the future, where AI will play an ever more prominent role. At the organisational level, the uptake of AI has been uneven, due to a shortage of specialised and managerial skills required to effectively identify and implement AI solutions. At a societal level, educational and training institutions and policymakers have struggled to keep pace with this rapid transformation, often producing fragmented, reactive responses that are poorly substantiated by empirical evidence. This talk will explore what we currently know – and what we still need to study -about the capabilities required in AI-mediated societies and workplaces. The talk will propose strategies for developing these vital capabilities at the individual, organisational, and societal levels.Period | 1 Nov 2024 |
