bcr 102: Japan to push for AI to be as relevant to primary school children as the 3 Rs - Better Communication Results

Just a quick video to let you know that Japan has just announced that it is going to make everyone, even primary school students, AI-literate within the next few years. The Japanese government wants primary school children to be as familiar with AI as they are with the 3Rs. Facing a severe skills shortage of technicians, Japan is having to rethink its entire tertiary system and government governance of technical infrastructure, which includes a massive reskilling operation. AI is deemed to be a key plank of Japan's economy in the near future. But skilled AI technicians are in short supply and Japan's immigration policies are being looked at with a view to opening the country up to foreign workers.
