80% of workers want to learn AI skills, but employers aren't teaching them

The majority (80%) of workers are interested in gaining more artificial intelligence (AI) skills, but employers aren't taking the steps to teach them, according to a Genpact report released on Monday. While more than half (53%) of senior executives claim they reskill employees, only 35% of workers said reskilling opportunities are actually available, the report found. Use of AI is rapidly growing in the enterprise, with digital transformation spending predicted to hit $2 trillion by 2022. Previously, consumers held fear and doubt about AI infiltrating their lives, afraid robots would take over their jobs. However, recent research predicts that AI won't take jobs, but will actually create new jobs and support human workers.
