Bosses want to hire people with AI aptitude, but many employees aren't focused on the new technology. Yet over two-thirds of desk workers say they've never used AI, according to a March 2024 Slack Workforce Lab survey of more than 10,000 professionals. People who don't learn AI risk losing career opportunities to those who do, says Lydia Logan, IBM's vice president of global education and workforce development. Generative AI is expected to affect more than 300 million jobs worldwide, per Goldman Sachs's estimates. The one AI skill that's in "crazy demand," according to Logan, and that she encourages everyone to learn, is prompt engineering.

Experiential programs like hackathons and accessible technologies like virtual reality are creating more opportunities to deliver richer learning to more students. One example of new teaching technologies is in IBM's work with Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). We are collaborating with 20 HBCUs to bring new technical training opportunities to students and co-create cybersecurity training centers. From early pilots of virtual reality teaching, to innovation challenges, students are benefitting from access to cutting-edge technologies and multi-disciplinary collaboration. In 2023, we're excited to explore new experiential learning technologies and help tackle the skills shortage.
