IT Leaders' AI Talent Needs Hinge On Reskilling
CIO, Friday, May 31st, 2024
Most organizations see the need to revamp their training programs to address AI skills shortages - an approach that delivers intangibles hiring can't provide.
CIOs and HR managers are changing their equations on hiring and training, with a bigger focus on reskilling current employees to make good on the promise of AI technologies.
That shift is in no small part due to an AI talent market increasingly stacked against them. With AI talent in high demand, the shortage of AI technicians available will only get worse, some hiring experts say, as job postings for workers with AI expertise are growing 3.5 times faster than for all jobs, according to a recent PwC report.
