- Google’s report reveals worrying adoption gaps among British workers
- The government should “guarantee training on AI” for these workers
- Allowing the workforce to effectively adopt AI represents half of economic growth
A new Google report said that the United Kingdom could potentially double its adoption of artificial intelligence, which has led to an increase in productivity and around 400 billion pounds of economic growth.
The latest report on the company’s work of the company plays in the role of human workers in the successful deployment of AI – the effective adoption of the workforce could represent 200 billion pounds Sterling, or half of the gains.
However, insofar as he is currently able, two in three British workers have never used generative AI at work – a most important trend in “elderly women from lower socio -economic backgrounds”.
Effective adoption of AI
Google’s report focuses on accessibility problems surrounding artificial intelligence. Women over 55 are four times less likely to use AI than men under the age of 35, the report reveals.
However, there is no need to be lost, the technology giant spending a handful of key considerations that companies can explore to stimulate adoption between all workers.
The main opinion is that workers need “permission to provoke” – give workers an explicit authorization to use AI and the development of clear AI policies will help them understand that the advantages of AI are legitimate, equitable and comparable to other tools based on the Internet.
Google has also noted that AI habits are easy to train, revealing that a few hours of training can double daily use of AI, which remains raised several months after this initial lesson. Consequently, this training of inhabitants leads to more in -depth exploration and encourages continuous learning.
Naturally, the report also explores how AI can save workers time – an average of 122 hours per year in all sectors, depending on the figures, which exceeds the estimation of 100 hours previously modeled.
Finally, Google says that support for workers with upgrading efforts can help reduce adoption gaps.
“We want these pilots to encourage more leaders to act now and take this opportunity to equip each the skills necessary to unlock economic growth and modify the ways of working for the best,” noted Debbie Weinstein, president of Google de Google.
Google has also urged the British government to “guarantee AI training for all public sector workers”.
Peter Kyle, Secretary of State for Science, Innovation and Technology, is committed to supporting British workforce: “We will help workers develop the skills they need for jobs in and with AI, so that all parts of society can benefit from this technology.”
