Commencing with regional trials
Google is initiating the AI Works program to explore methods to swiftly and significantly boost the acquisition of AI competencies and unite more individuals with the advantages of this technology. This groundbreaking initiative will involve collaborations with Community Union, Enterprise Nation, small and medium-sized enterprises like Grind Coffee, and multi-academy trusts such as Academies Enterprise Trust and Leo Academy Trust, to experiment with various strategies impacting around 1,500 individuals. The primary objective is to motivate more British citizens to engage with AI.
The groundbreaking analysis from Public First demonstrates the extent of this potential, indicating that nearly two-thirds of job roles nationwide (61%) will experience substantial enhancements due to AI. Although every industry will observe benefits from AI, office personnel and individuals in administrative positions are expected to undergo the most profound transformations. This offers a unique opportunity to revolutionize the labor landscape. Prior surveys by Public First unveiled that preparing the British workforce for success could unleash over £400 billion in AI-fueled economic expansion by 2030. Empowering individuals to leverage AI for maximizing their professional and business growth would not only enrich the livelihoods of millions but also unlock productivity and growth valued at billions.
AI holds the potential to add value to every domain in the UK, from aiding educators in devising captivating lesson plans to enhancing customer support for small enterprises, and even assisting construction workers in effectively managing construction sites.
