In Conversation with Professor Barney Glover: Is training adapted to the AI transition?

Dec 13, 2024 | 8:30 AM - 9:00 AM

Description

Training systems are being called upon to prepare workers for the adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) in the workplace. While initial education is important, upskilling and reskilling the existing workforce is essential to help individuals and businesses adapt and prepare for a more extensive use of AI in the workplace. Policy makers face the challenge of ensuring that training is both relevant and inclusive, ranging from training to prepare AI specialists to courses that foster AI literacy among the much larger group of workers exposed to AI. Is the training available today responding to these needs? what are best strategies to better adapt its content to current and future needs?
