Artificial Intelligence: Training
The question
To ask the Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, what steps she is taking to expand skills and ethical training in AI.
Answered by Kanishka Narayan
The Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT) is taking significant steps to expand skills and ethical training in AI.
Last year, we formed a partnership with 11 major technology companies and leading UK businesses to upskill 7.5 million workers in AI by 2030. This will ensure that UK workers benefit from the transformational impact AI will have in the workplace right across the country by ensuring they have access to high quality skills provision, free at the point of use. This will cover a range of skills, including responsible and ethical use of AI.
Last year we also launched the AI Skills Hub – an online learning platform where learners can access training courses on a range of topics ranging from foundational AI literacy to ethics and responsible AI use, to more advanced skills to develop and deploy AI.
