This means that working with AI will be a human job for quite a while. Better yet, women can get involved with AI governance to help correct some of the bias and ethics issues. If you want to go one step further, start learning how to build AI and work on developing the next generation of generative AIs. Plenty of courses are available on how to code AI, or you can If there’s one takeaway from all of this, it’s that thinking about the future of work and what skills you need to succeed is vital to navigating the uncertain world of generative AI. Your job might be replaced with AI, but you will still have a role. *BICSI reminds users that they may not and are not authorized to submit or incorporate BICSI data of any kind, including but not limited to BICSI member or credential holder names or information, BICSI business plans, or any other BICSI proprietary and confidential information on any AI platform. self-study using chat boards and YouTube.
