美国领先企业联合成立了一个联盟,应对人工智能对技术岗位劳动力的影响由思科(Cisco)牵头,埃森哲(Accenture)、谷歌(Google)、国际商业机器公司(IBM)和微软(Microsoft)等主要行业参与者参与的人工智能 ICT 劳动力联盟(AI-Enabled ICT Workforce Consortium)AI-Enabled Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Workforce Consortium 旨在评估和减轻人工智能对技术工作的影响。该联盟旨在确定受人工智能进步影响的岗位所需的关键技能,为再培训和提高技能提供途径。该倡议借鉴了私营部门、顾问和政府的合作见解,为人工智能环境下的劳动力做好准备,强调了全球合作促进包容性技术未来的必要性。
人工智能 ICT 劳动力联盟致力于提供实际可行的洞见,发掘重新培训和提升技能的新机遇
思科牵头成立的AI赋能信息通信技术(ICT)工作力联盟,包括埃森哲、Eightfold、谷歌、IBM、Indeed、英特尔、微软和SAP等行业领导者的加入。该联盟将评估人工智能对科技岗位的影响,并为最可能受到AI影响的职业确定技能发展途径。 联盟的成立得到了美国-欧盟贸易与技术委员会人才成长工作组的推动,思科主席兼CEO Chuck Robbins在该工作组的参与,以及美国商务部的建议,起到了催化剂的作用。 顾问团包括美国劳工联盟-产业组织联合会、CHAIN5、美国通信工人联合会、DIGITALEUROPE、欧洲职业培训协会、可汗学院和SMEUnited等。
比利时鲁汶,2024年4月4日-- 思科(纳斯达克代码:CSCO)和另外八家行业领先公司包括埃森哲、Eightfold、谷歌、IBM、Indeed、英特尔、微软和SAP,以及六位顾问今天宣布,成立了致力于提升和重新培训最可能受到AI影响岗位的AI赋能ICT工作力联盟。该联盟受到美国-欧盟贸易与技术委员会人才成长工作组的启发,旨在探究AI对ICT岗位的影响,帮助工作者发现并参与相关培训计划,同时连接企业和具备相应技能、准备就绪的工作者。
作为私营部门的合作平台,联盟正评估AI如何改变工作岗位及所需技能,让工作者取得成功。首阶段工作成果将总结为一份提供给企业领导者和工作者实际建议的报告。未来几个月将公布更多详情。研究结果旨在为那些寻求为员工重新培训和提升技能的雇主提供实用的洞见和建议。
联盟成员涵盖了在AI前沿创新的企业,他们深知AI对劳动力市场的当前和未来影响。各成员企业已分别记录了AI带来的机遇与挑战。通过合作,这些组织能够汇聚见解,推荐行动计划,并在其广泛的影响领域内实施这些发现。
“人工智能正加速全球劳动力市场的变革,为私营部门提供了一个强大机会,帮助工作者重新培训和提升技能,以迎接未来,”思科执行副总裁兼首席人事、政策与目标官Francine Katsoudas表示。“我们新成立的AI赋能工作力联盟的任务是向组织提供关于AI对劳动力影响的知识,并装备工作者以相关技能。我们期待吸引更多利益相关方——包括政府、非政府组织和学术界——一同迈出确保AI革命惠及每个人的重要一步。”
联盟的工作受到了美国-欧盟贸易与技术委员会人才成长工作组的启发,思科主席兼CEO Chuck Robbins领导其技能培训工作流程的指导,以及美国商务部的建议。美国总统拜登、欧盟委员会主席冯德莱恩和欧洲理事会主席米歇尔于2021年6月成立了TTC,目的是通过合作和民主方法在贸易、技术和安全领域推进美国和欧盟的竞争力和繁荣。
“在美国商务部,我们致力于推动先进技术的发展,并深化与全球伙伴和盟友之间的贸易与投资关系。这项工作正帮助我们建立一个强大且具竞争力的经济体,由能够获得高质量、高薪、可维持家庭生活的未来工作的才华横溢的劳动力所推动。我们明白,经济安全与国家安全紧密相连。这就是我为何感到自豪地看到人才成长工作组的努力以及AI赋能ICT工作力联盟的成立,”美国商务部长Gina Raimondo表示。“我感激联盟成员加入这一努力,共同面对AI快速发展所带来的新型劳动力需求。这项工作将为这些工作的具体技能需求提供前所未有的见解。我希望这个联盟仅是一个开始,并且私营部门将其视为一个行动呼吁,确保我们的劳动力能够享受到AI带来的好处。”
AI赋能ICT工作力联盟的工作解决了对具备AI各方面技能训练的熟练劳动力的紧迫需求。联盟将利用其成员和顾问的力量,推荐和扩大包容性的重新培训和提升技能培训计划,以惠及多方利益相关者——学生、职业转换者、当前的IT工作者、雇主和教育者——大规模提升工作者以适应AI时代。
在其首阶段工作中,联盟将评估AI对56个ICT岗位角色的影响,并为受影响岗位提供培训建议。这些岗位角色根据Indeed Hiring Lab的数据,包括在2023年2月至2024年期间在美国和五个ICT劳动力最多的欧洲国家(法国、德国、意大利、西班牙和荷兰)获得最高岗位发布量的前45个ICT职位的80%。这些国家的ICT部门共计拥有1000万名ICT工作者,占据了行业的重要份额。
联盟成员普遍认识到,随着AI在商业的所有方面的加速融合,及时集结力量,建立一个包容性、能提供维持家庭生活机会的劳动力市场的重要性。联盟成员承诺,在将越来越多地整合人工智能技术的职业领域,开发工作者路径。为此,联盟成员设定了具有远见的目标,并通过技能发展和培训计划,在未来十年内对全球超过9500万人产生积极影响。联盟成员的目标包括:
思科承诺到2032年为2500万人提供网络安全和数字技能培训。
IBM将在2030年前为3000万人提供数字技能培训,包括200万人的AI技能。
英特尔计划到2030年为超过3000万人提供当前和未来工作的AI技能。
微软承诺到2025年为来自弱势社区的1000万人提供需求旺盛的数字技能培训和认证,为他们在数字经济中提供工作和生计机会。
SAP计划到2025年为全球200万人提供提升技能培训。
谷歌最近宣布投入2500万欧元,支持全欧洲人民的AI培训和技能提升。
埃森哲
“帮助组织识别技能差距并进行大规模快速培训是埃森哲的重点任务,这个联盟汇集了一系列致力于在我们社区中发展尖端技术、数据和AI技能的行业合作伙伴。在各个行业中,为与AI协同工作的人员进行重新培训至关重要。那些在技术投资中与学习投资同等重视的组织,不仅创造了职业发展路径,还能在市场中占据领先地位。” - 埃森哲首席领导力与人力资源官Ellyn Shook
Eightfold
“工作的动态和本质正在以前所未有的速度演变。Eightfold通过深入分析最受欢迎的职位,了解重新培训和提升技能的需求。通过其人才智能平台,我们为商业领袖提供了迅速适应不断变化的商业环境的能力。我们为能够为组织预备未来工作做出贡献而感到自豪。” - Eightfold AI首席执行官兼联合创始人Ashutosh Garg
谷歌
“谷歌坚信,技术创造的机遇应真正面向所有人。我们自豪地加入AI赋能工作力联盟,进一步推动我们使AI技能培训普及化的工作。我们致力于跨领域合作,确保不同背景的工作者都能有效利用AI,为面向未来的职位做好准备,获得新机会,在经济中茁壮成长。” - 谷歌成长计划创始人Lisa Gevelber
IBM
“IBM自豪地加入这个及时的企业主导倡议,通过汇集我们的共同专业知识和资源,为AI时代的劳动力做好准备。作为行业领袖,我们共同的责任是发展可信赖的技术,并为所有背景和经验水平的工作者提供学习新技能和提升现有技能的机会,以应对AI采纳改变工作方式并创造新职位的挑战。” - IBM欧洲中东非洲人力资源副总裁Gian Luigi Cattaneo
Indeed
“Indeed的使命是帮助人们找到工作。我们的研究表明,Indeed上今天发布的几乎每个职位,从卡车司机到医生到软件工程师,都将面临不同程度的受到基于GenAI的变革的影响。我们期待为工作力联盟的重要工作做出贡献。那些授权其员工学习新技能并获得与不断发展的AI工具的实践经验的公司,将加深他们的专业团队,提高员工留存率并扩大其合格候选人库。” - Indeed AI创新部门负责人Hannah Calhoon
英特尔
“作为全球AI创新的领导者,英特尔自豪地加入ICT工作力联盟,继续我们的努力,为所有人塑造一个包容和公平的技术未来。作为联盟的一员,我们将与行业领袖合作,分享最佳实践,创造可访问的学习机会,并与各方利益相关者协作,确保工作者掌握了迎接明天的技术技能。” - 微软人力资源法律副总裁兼副总法律顾问Amy Pannoni
SAP
“SAP自豪地加入这一努力,帮助为未来的工作准备我们的劳动力,并确保AI在企业和职位中的应用是相关的、可靠的、负责任的。面对我们不断变化的世界的复杂性,AI有潜力重塑行业、革新解决问题的方式,并释放前所未有的人类潜能,使我们能够构建一个更智能、更高效和更包容的劳动力。多年来,SAP支持了许多技能发展计划,我们期待作为联盟的一部分推动更多的学习机会、创新和积极变化。” - SAP副总裁兼全球开发学习负责人Nicole Helmer

LEUVEN, Belgium, April 4, 2024 - Cisco (NASDAQ: CSCO) and a group of eight leading companies including Accenture, Eightfold, Google, IBM, Indeed, Intel, Microsoft and SAP as well as six advisors today announced the launch of the AI-Enabled Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Workforce Consortium focused on upskilling and reskilling roles most likely to be impacted by AI. The Consortium is catalyzed by the work of the U.S.-EU Trade and Technology Council's (TTC) Talent for Growth Task Force, with the goal of exploring AI's impact on ICT job roles, enabling workers to find and access relevant training programs, and connecting businesses to skilled and job-ready workers.
Working as a private sector collaborative, the Consortium is evaluating how AI is changing the jobs and skills workers need to be successful. The first phase of work will culminate in a report with actionable insights for business leaders and workers. Further details will be shared in the coming months. Findings will be intended to offer practical insights and recommendations to employers that seek ways to reskill and upskill their workers in preparation for AI-enabled environments.
Consortium members represent a cross section of companies innovating on the cutting edge of AI that also understand the current and impending impact of AI on the workforce. Individually, Consortium members have documented opportunities and challenges presented by AI. The collaborative effort enables their organizations to coalesce insights, recommend action plans, and activate findings within their respective broad spheres of influence.
"AI is accelerating the pace of change for the global workforce, presenting a powerful opportunity for the private sector to help upskill and reskill workers for the future," said Francine Katsoudas, Executive Vice President and Chief People, Policy & Purpose Officer, Cisco. "The mission of our newly unveiled AI-Enabled Workforce Consortium is to provide organizations with knowledge about the impact of AI on the workforce and equip workers with relevant skills. We look forward to engaging other stakeholders—including governments, NGOs, and the academic community—as we take this important first step toward ensuring that the AI revolution leaves no one behind."
The Consortium's work is inspired by the TTC's Talent for Growth Task Force and Cisco Chair and CEO Chuck Robbins' leadership of its skills training workstream, and input from the U.S. Department of Commerce. The TTC was established in June 2021 by U.S. President Biden, European Commission President von der Leyen, and European Council President Michel to promote U.S. and EU competitiveness and prosperity through cooperation and democratic approaches to trade, technology, and security.
"At the U.S. Department of Commerce, we're focused on fueling advanced technology and deepening trade and investment relationships with partners and allies around the world. This work is helping us build a strong and competitive economy, propelled by a talented workforce that's enabling workers to get into the good quality, high-paying, family-sustaining jobs of the future. We recognize that economic security and national security are inextricably linked. That's why I'm proud to see the efforts of the Talent for Growth Task Force continue with the creation of the AI-Enabled ICT Workforce Consortium," said U.S. Secretary of Commerce Gina Raimondo. "I am grateful to the consortium members for joining in this effort to confront the new workforce needs that are arising in the wake of AI's rapid development. This work will help provide unprecedented insight on the specific skill needs for these jobs. I hope that this Consortium is just the beginning, and that the private sector sees this as a call to action to ensure our workforces can reap the benefits of AI."
The AI-Enabled ICT Workforce Consortium's efforts address a business critical and growing need for a proficient workforce that is trained in various aspects of AI, including the skills to implement AI applications across business processes. The Consortium will leverage its members and advisors to recommend and amplify reskilling and upskilling training programs that are inclusive and can benefit multiple stakeholders – students, career changers, current IT workers, employers, and educators – in order to skill workers at scale to engage in the AI era.
In its first phase of work, the Consortium will evaluate the impact of AI on 56 ICT job roles and provide training recommendations for impacted jobs. These job roles include 80% of the top 45 ICT job titles garnering the highest volume of job postings for the period February 2023-2024 in the United States and five of the largest European countries by ICT workforce numbers (France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands) according to Indeed Hiring Lab. Collectively, these countries account for a significant segment of the ICT sector, with a combined total of 10 million ICT workers.
Consortium members universally recognize the urgency and importance of their combined efforts with the acceleration of AI in all facets of business and the need to build an inclusive workforce with family-sustaining opportunities. Consortium members commit to developing worker pathways particularly in job sectors that will increasingly integrate artificial intelligence technology. To that end, Consortium members have established forward thinking goals with skills development and training programs to positively impact over 95 million individuals around the world over the next 10 years. Consortium member goals include:
Cisco to train 25 million people with cybersecurity and digital skills by 2032.
IBM to skill 30 million individuals by 2030 in digital skills, including 2 million in AI.
Intel to empower more than 30 million people with AI skills for current and future jobs by 2030.
Microsoft to train and certify 10 million people from underserved communities with in-demand digital skills for jobs and livelihood opportunities in the digital economy by 2025.
