Why you should improve your AI skills<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A recent Salesforce survey<\/a> found that 80% of HR leaders expect most workforces to be made up of both humans and digital workers<\/a> within the next five years. Meanwhile, in the first half of this year, mentions of AI in job postings increased by more than 50%<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

More than four in five HR leaders surveyed said they were already reskilling employees for roles with better future opportunities, or have plans in the works. But why wait? The sooner you develop and improve your AI skills<\/a>, the more prepared you\u2019ll be to work with digital labour<\/a> at your job.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Better yet, building your knowledge can open up a world of possibilities around the new jobs that AI is creating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
