A forum to highlight the importance of AI in society's future
This meeting of Cadena SER was framed in a moment of particular importance for the AI development in Spain. In fact, the University of Granada, a national leader in the AI sector, announced the upcoming purchase of a supercomputer to help boost both public research and the private sector, in an ecosystem of transfer of knowledge of which EDUCA EDTECH Group particpia in the formation layer.
"We have detected a gap between what companies need and the talent that is being trained. From the group, we help to make that connection between those seeking job opportunities and what companies need; it is through agile, training and up-to-date training".
In this respect, García-Parrado stressed that the artificial intelligence cannot be a tool exclusively for those who already have advanced digital skills, but must also reach out to the less digitised spheres of society.
"That's why our AI digital mentor, PHIA, is specially designed to be useful from minute one, providing students with immediate solutions that help them get the most out of their education.
With regard to the transformation of the organisations themselves on the basis of the AI solutionsGarcía-Parrado spoke of "transformation" of workplaces, making better use of the skills of professionals and delegating repetitive or low added-value tasks to the artificial intelligences.
