433 — What does ‘AI literacy’ look like in organizations?
Episode description
The World Economic Forum’s recent ‘Future of Jobs’ report positioned ‘AI and big data’ and ‘technological literacy’ as skills that will become increasingly important over the next five years. But what do these skills look like in practice? What do we mean when we talk about ‘AI literacy’?
In this week’s episode of The Mindtools L&D Podcast, Ross D and Anna are joined by Erica Werneman Root, legal consultant and co-founder of Knowledge Bridge, to discuss:
-
what ‘AI literacy’ means in different contexts;
-
the compliance implications of building AI literacy in organizations;
-
how L&D can help employees develop AI skills.
To find out more about AI literacy, check out Erica’s recent articles for IAPP.
For examples of how organizations are building AI literacy programmes, explore the AI Office’s ‘Living Repository of AI Literacy Practices’.
The blog Anna mentioned was ‘From Centaurs To Cyborgs: Our evolving relationship with generative AI’
In ‘What I Learned This Week’, Anna referenced research from Harvard, exploring the effects of AI on knowledge work.
Ross D mentioned OpenAI’s new ‘Deep Research’ tool. More trivially, he also shared Pierre Franey’s five-star recipe for turkey chilli.
