Working Group 5: Growing the AI Talent Pool
The following ranked themes emerged from a recent non-random interview survey of nine firms working with AI in New Zealand conducted by members of the AI Forum’s WG5 team. These themes illustrate the kinds of issues that firms using AI face in attracting and nurturing AI talent and developing a sufficiently diverse AI workforce. These themes will inform the working group’s future advice on what responses might be considered in New Zealand (in conjunction with other evidence and analysis).
