Experts at the AI UK conference emphasized the need for government action to prepare the workforce for the AI revolution, highlighting that relying solely on industries to upskill workers is insufficient. The increasing prevalence of AI technologies raises concerns about job security and necessitates retraining initiatives. Additionally, there is an anticipated shortage of skilled AI professionals that could hinder innovation. Panelists advocated for training efforts that serve broader societal benefits, not just economic gain, underscoring the importance of a comprehensive, ethical approach to AI upskilling.
The lens through which you view AI upskilling, for this to be responsible and ethical, and be citizen centered - is this of benefit to citizens and society, not just that it will help get a job or as an industry thing.
Industry only supports it [training efforts] if they see commercial opportunity at the end of it.
