An online retailer recently underwent an AI transformation after it realized it no longer needed to employ an expensive local workforce to provide customer support. They split their customer support between AI bots serving as the first tier of support and an offshore team to which AI could escalate calls, functioning as a second tier of support. Its operational costs dropped precipitously, but so did the quality of service and sales.

This is just one example of the trendiest conversation in every boardroom, event and trade conference. More than anything, executives want to know when they can finally replace employees who require benefits, vacations, mental health programs, promotions and professional development and replace them with an army of AI bots. And we need to talk about this.

Handling Today’s Threatscape at Machine Scale

The chopping block includes roles like customer support, software developers, copywriters and content creators, marketing managers, forklift operators, drivers and more. The latest edition to this extinction list is no less than the CEO, says The New York Times. I’m less concerned about this, though, because we CEOs are still the ones deciding who gets replaced by AI.

Let’s augment, not replace

On behalf of all CEOs, I’ll admit that 75 to 90% of our day-to-day work is fully automatable by AI. Every task that involves collecting information, analyzing it and recommending decisions to maximize outcomes, AI can do better than a human CEO. Then there is the remaining 10 to 25%, and it’s crucial and unique to who a CEO is as a leader. It includes empathy, accountability, vision and inspiration to name a few.[…]

Recruitment, selection, promotion, termination: these key workplace decisions are all considered automatically “high risk” under the EU AI Act. What does this mean in practice? Lewis Silkin looks at some of the burning questions employers are likely to have on the impact of this legislation.

 

Copyright: lewissilkin.com – “EU AI Act: What Does It Mean For Employers?”


SwissCognitive_Logo_RGBWhat is the EU AI Act?

Described by the EU as “the world’s first comprehensive legal framework on AI worldwide”, the EU AI Act has now been formally adopted by the European Parliament.

Expected to be adopted by the Council this month, it then enters into force 20 days after publication in the EU Official Journal, with the implementation staggered over the next two years.

The intention is that the AI Act ensures that AI systems are used safely and ethically, prohibiting certain practices that pose an unacceptable level of risk, and setting out clear requirements for other AI systems that have potentially harmful outcomes.

We have published a detailed guide to the AI Act here, answering questions such as what is an AI system, when will the Act be implemented, and looking in depth at some of the defined “roles” under the Act. This article focuses on the implications of the AI Act on the use of AI in employment.

Below we explore what the AI Act means for employers.

UK is no longer in the EU – why does it matter there too?

The intention of the AI Act is to protect people in the EU who are affected by AI systems. This means that the Act not only applies to employers located in the EU that use AI systems, but also applies to those located in non-EU member states where the output of that system is used in the EU.

In the employment context, in scope examples might be recruitment exercises managed from the UK, using AI tools for sifting, which are open to applicants from the EU. Or cross jurisdictional teams managed from the UK by AI supported performance evaluation software.

However, the impact of the AI Act will go beyond its technical legal reach. Many employers operating internationally will want to ensure that any AI system they use complies with the AI Act, rather than considering each use case individually and having some processes compliant and others not. The general expectation is that this is likely to become the international default, like the GDPR.[…]

The Urgent Case for Upskilling Employees in the AI Age https://swisscognitive.ch/2024/02/22/the-urgent-case-for-upskilling-employees-in-the-ai-age/ Thu, 22 Feb 2024 04:44:00 +0000 https://swisscognitive.ch/?p=124969 When AI could displace millions of jobs, investing in employees' reskilling and upskilling emerges as a vital strategy for businesses.

When AI could displace millions of jobs, investing in employees’ reskilling and upskilling emerges as a vital strategy for businesses to bridge the skills gap and embrace technological advancement.

 

SwissCognitive Guest Blogger: Reddy Mallidi – “The Urgent Case for Upskilling Employees in the AI Age”


 

Artificial intelligence (AI) could potentially displace 30% of activities across 60% of occupations in the next few years. That’s over 85 million jobs gone by 2025 according to World Economic Forum estimates. Yet even amidst this looming unemployment crisis, companies already report shortages for skilled talent to develop and manage new AI systems.

This growing mismatch between human skills and those needed to thrive in an AI-powered world signals an urgent need for businesses to invest in reskilling and upskilling their workforces. Otherwise, the disconnect will likely worsen, causing substantial unemployment and loss of competitive edge.

The Skills Gap Widens

On the one hand, AI and automation are making some jobs redundant. Cashiers, Customer Service specialists, accountants and even radiologists among others may face displacement with the advent of AI.

Simultaneously, these technologies are creating new specialized roles like AI researchers, data analysts, machine learning engineers and automation specialists. Positions requiring technical expertise to build, implement and manage AI systems are seeing a surge in demand. But talent supply is scarce even amidst increasing unemployment.

This bifurcation is causing a skills gap across industries. Employers are forced to choose between two less than ideal options – either invest significant resources to retrain existing employees or compete for expensive external talent in an overheated job market. Both choices have heavy cost and productivity implications.

Real-World Challenges for Companies

Inability to access qualified talent hampers competitiveness for firms racing to deploy AI. An IBM survey found that inadequate skills was the top barrier to AI adoption for over half of North American executives. Companies investing in upskilling will gain an advantage over those lacking capable staff to leverage AI.

Moreover, lack of future-ready skills magnifies displacement risks for employees. With no reskilling support, redundancies and unemployment likely will rise.

The business case for investing in retraining and upskilling is clear when we consider these talent challenges companies face today:

  • Shortage of qualified talent for emerging tech-driven roles.
  • High costs and effort competing for external hires.
  • Loss of institutional knowledge as people leave.
  • Reduced competitiveness against rivals deploying AI rapidly.
  • Growing skills gaps and displacement leading to higher unemployment

Upskilling: A Win-Win for Employers and Workers

While the scale of disruption is daunting, it presents exciting upskilling opportunities through training programs tailored to build capabilities for new roles.

Amazon is heavily investing in upskilling and reskilling initiatives to build AI capabilities of employees with their Machine Learning University. Adobe’s Digital Academy helped several employees transition to data-focused roles and upskilled employees saw a salary increase of $30-100K. Deloitte has launched the Deloitte AI Academy, a program aimed at educating the next generation of AI professionals. As part of Deloitte’s initiative to train up to 10,000 professionals in AI. Deloitte AI Academy has expanded its curriculum to include Generative AI training that both practitioners and clients can tap into.

These examples demonstrate that targeted reskilling delivers manifold benefits beyond filling open positions:

  • Preserves valuable institutional knowledge.
  • Motivates and engages employees by investing in their growth.
  • Shows commitment to workforce employability and mobility.
  • Allows filling of critical skills gaps from within
  • Saves costs of external recruitment and onboarding

With adaptable vision, companies can cultivate the talent they need within existing teams. Reskilling helps workers remain relevant amidst seismic technological shifts.

Recommendations for Successful Reskilling Initiatives

Here are some best practices for executing effective workforce upskilling:

  • Conduct skills gap analysis to identify role-based deficits.
  • Curate customized programs blending technical and soft skills.
  • Offer incentives like bonuses, promotions and certifications.
  • Seek partnerships with online learning platforms and academia.
  • Leverage government aid for subsidized training initiatives.
  • Promote a culture of continuous learning and growth mindset.

The future of work will require new collaborations between humans and AI. With pragmatic and compassionate leadership, companies can upskill workforces to harness the full potential of technological progress. The result will be more inclusive prosperity and promising futures for both business and society.

Facing an intensifying AI talent crunch, companies must take a strategic approach to team building or risk falling behind. This article outlines best practices for talent assessment, innovative recruiting, multifaceted retention programs, and reskilling to ensure access to the specialized AI expertise needed to compete.

 

SwissCognitive Guest Blogger: Robert John Lora – “Bridging The Gap: Innovative Strategies For AI Talent Recruitment in 2024”


 

SwissCognitive_Logo_RGBThe AI talent crunch is here. And, the stakes for effective AI talent recruitment have never been higher.

As organizations scramble to build teams capable of developing and deploying complex AI systems, they’re realizing the specialized expertise needed far outpaces supply. Positions like data scientists, machine learning engineers, and AI ethicists have become some of the most in-demand and hardest-to-fill roles. And with leading AI consultancies estimating demand for AI talents will increase by nearly 40% annually for the next decade, these shortages show no sign of easing.

So how can companies hoping to leverage AI stay competitive in such a constrained talent market? The key is taking a strategic, multifaceted approach to AI team building. This means thoroughly assessing your talent requires, getting creative with recruiting, and implementing new strategies to retain and reskill existing employees. Companies that fail to take action will quickly find themselves losing out on top candidates and falling behind the AI curve.

Assessing Your AI Talent Needs

Once companies recognize the urgency of the AI talent shortage, the next step is conducting an honest assessment of their current and future needs. This lays the groundwork for building an effective recruitment and retention strategy.

Identifying Key Roles

The first thing organizations must do is map out the key roles needed to achieve their AI objectives. This ranges from machine learning engineers and data engineers to product managers and user researchers. While data scientists tend to get the most attention, a successful AI team requires a diverse mix of specialized talent.

Companies should start by auditing their existing teams to catalog strengths and capability gaps. This understanding of internal talent can help determine which additional roles should be prioritized.

When mapping out key roles and competencies for an AI-driven future, it’s crucial to consider the broader impact of AI on the job market. A report by ChamberofCommerce.org outlines where AI is likely to replace jobs, highlighting the importance of strategic workforce planning in the face of automation. As companies identify the AI talent they need, they must also anticipate and prepare for the shifts in employment that AI advancements will inevitably bring. This foresight will be essential in navigating the evolving landscape and ensuring a resilient workforce.

Required Competencies

With an initial roster of needed roles, companies can drill down further to define the must-have technical competencies and soft skills for each. This might include programming languages like Python and TensorFlow for ML engineers, or communication and translation abilities for AI ethicists.

Explicitly outlining competencies rather than just credentials allows for casting a wider net that focuses on candidates’ hands-on abilities rather than just degrees or years of experience.

Planning for Future Growth

Finally, all hiring plans should account for the rapid pace of advancement in the field. Having concrete mechanisms to continually upskill existing talent and fill newly created roles will allow teams to stay on the cutting edge as AI capabilities evolve.

Recruiting AI Talent

Once companies have a clear picture of their AI talent needs, the AI talent recruitment process begins. To land top candidates in an extremely competitive market, organizations must get creative and leverage the latest sourcing strategies and platforms.

Leveraging Online Platforms and Communities

There is a thriving community of AI experts sharing knowledge, collaborating, and networking online. Platforms like GitHub, Kaggle, LinkedIn Groups, Meetup.com, and various Slack channels have become go-to gathering spots for practitioners. Companies hoping to connect with passive candidates should have a presence on these channels.

In addition to engagement, these sites can be mined for potential hires. For example, reviewing users’ public code repositories and competition entries on Kaggle offers insight into their hands-on abilities.

Standing Out with Your Employer Brand

With remote work expanding the candidate pool globally, organizations require an employer brand that resonates across borders. Highlighting your AI innovation initiatives, training opportunities, and culture of collaboration can help position your company as an exciting place for AI experts to grow their careers.

Offering Competitive Compensation

Finally, compensation plays a pivotal role, especially when trying to poach talent from tech giants setting new salary records. While smaller companies can’t always match FAANG-level salaries, they should ensure pay is fair and offer compelling perks and equity packages.

Retaining and Developing Talent

With the costs of recruiting and onboarding new employees so high, retaining AI talent once hired is just as important as attracting it. Organizations should focus on providing abundant growth opportunities to keep teams engaged and at the top of their game.

Providing Development Opportunities

Investing in continuous skills development is table stakes for retaining AI talent. Companies should provide ample training resources, research time, conference participation, and learning stipends. Rotational programs, mentorships, and stretch assignments also expand skills.

Building an Inclusive Culture

Beyond pure skills growth, fostering a culture where all team members feel valued and able to contribute meaningfully is key. Emphasizing collaboration, psychological safety, and diversity encourages retention and innovation.

Implementing Retention Strategies

Proactive retention requires gathering feedback on satisfaction levels and career goals. With this insight, managers can have candid conversations and take action to preemptively address pain points. Competitive compensation reviews and clear promotion paths also boost retention.

Reskilling Employees for AI Roles

For companies struggling to recruit specialized AI experts externally, looking inward at existing employees with transferable skills is wise. With proper training and development, talented team members in adjacent roles can transition into key AI positions.

Assessing Reskilling Potential

The first step is evaluating the broader workforce to identity candidates with relevant experience, education, and willingness to learn new technical capabilities. Data-savvy product managers, quant-focused analysts, and software engineers often have strong foundations to build upon.

Creating Training Programs

Once promising individuals are identified, bespoke training programs focused on developing AI competencies can facilitate reskilling. These programs should provide learning resources, hands-on lab time, mentorship opportunities, and methods for certifying new skills.

Certifying Skills

Validating reskilled employees’ newly attained AI qualifications is crucial for placing them into specialized roles. Accredited certifications through programs like Google’s Machine Learning Certificate or IBM’s Data Science Professional Certificate act as markers of achievement.

Conclusion

The AI skills gap presents a pressing challenge, but with strategic planning companies can build teams to drive innovation. Conducting an honest assessment of current and future AI talent needs lays the groundwork. Getting creative with recruiting by tapping niche communities and showcasing your employer brand can help attract qualified candidates.

Equally important is implementing multifaceted retention strategies – from continuous skills development to fostering inclusive cultures. Finally, reskilling existing employees through targeted training programs is an avenue for developing specialized AI experts over time.

With demand for AI expertise dramatically outpacing supply, AI talent recruitment is a crucial area of focus for companies. Companies that approach team building holistically will sustain a competitive edge even as the talent crunch intensifies across the tech landscape. Prioritizing long-term workforce planning for an AI-powered future ensures you have the talent needed to lead in your industry.
