Artificial intelligence is transforming both classrooms and workplaces, but successful #AI adoption depends on more than technology alone. New article on the SkillAIbility website: https://lnkd.in/dhqPKmYp From education to manufacturing, organisations are facing the same fundamental challenge: ➡ How do we build trust in AI? ➡ What skills do people need to work confidently with AI systems? ➡ How can innovation remain inclusive and human-centred? In our latest article, we explore the shared lessons emerging from two different sectors: 📚 Education through the GenAI4ED Project 🏭 Manufacturing through SkillAIbility and Industry 5.0 The article highlights why responsible AI adoption requires: ✔ AI literacy and lifelong learning ✔ Transparency and stakeholder participation ✔ Workforce empowerment and inclusion ✔ Human oversight and ethical governance As AI reshapes schools, factories, and workplaces alike, the future of innovation will depend on how well we prepare people, not only systems.

Digital transformation it’s a shared European journey   At the recent TechConnect Stakeholder Conference in Utrecht it was clear that real progress happens when we connect insights across initiatives, sectors, and countries.   In a session on transforming skills and technologies, TechConnect was joined by sister projects SkillAIbility and NewWorkTech. Together, they highlighted that the challenges we observe in one sector are rarely unique.   From hospitals to factories and public services, similar patterns emerge: misaligned training, underused technologies, and workflows that fail to evolve alongside innovation.   NewWorkTech showed how organisations across sectors are restructuring roles and responsibilities in response to advanced technologies and how workers experience these changes in practice.   SkillAIbility reinforced the importance of continuous, context-driven learning, building AI-ready skills is about developing adaptable capabilities like critical thinking and judgement.   Digital transformation is deeply human and progress accelerates when we collaborate, share knowledge, and align efforts across projects.   Trinity College Dublin Mälardalens universitet Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Universiteit Utrecht BluSpecs Region Västmanland UMC Utrecht Hospital Universitario Ramón y Cajal IRYCIS Aristotle University of Thessaloniki (AUTH)

AI is already transforming manufacturing, but the real competitive edge lies in how you integrate it with your workforce. Our latest article unpacks the business-critical shifts behind human–AI collaboration: 🔹 Changing skill demands (with 39% expected to evolve by 2030 – World Economic Forum) 🔹 The growing importance of adaptability, collaboration, and systems thinking 🔹 The role of Learning Factories in fast, practical upskilling 🚀 Companies that succeed are those that invest in people alongside technology, embrace inclusive and adaptive training models, involve employees in shaping transformation. Human-AI integration isn’t about replacing workers, it’s about unlocking new value through collaboration. 👉 Discover what it takes to stay competitive in the Industry 5.0 era: https://lnkd.in/eWxZ3CJi

📚 Friday reading advice from SkillAIbility: How can Europe turn #AI into real industrial impact? The Apply AI Strategy by the European Commission outlines how the EU aims to: 👉 Accelerate AI adoption across key sectors 👉 Strengthen industrial competitiveness 👉 Invest in AI skills and workforce transformation The message is clear: Europe’s success in AI will depend not only on technology but on people, skills, and trust. A perspective fully aligned with #SKillAIbility’s mission to support human-centric AI in manufacturing. 🔗 https://lnkd.in/e4aNNTUf

AI adoption in manufacturing is not just a technological shift, it’s a policy challenge with societal impact. Our latest article highlights why human-centric governance, inclusive skills policies, and ethical AI frameworks are critical to ensuring that Industry 5.0 delivers for everyone. Insights show: * 39% of skills will change by 2030 * Resistance to change remains a major barrier * Inclusion, accessibility, and lifelong learning are essential for resilience 💡 The takeaway: Policies must go beyond innovation support, they must enable participatory design, workforce empowerment, and equitable access to AI-driven opportunities. 👉 Explore how policy can shape a fair and competitive AI-powered manufacturing sector: https://lnkd.in/eWxZ3CJi

Research on human–AI collaboration is moving beyond theory and the implications for work, skills, and inclusion are becoming clearer. In our latest article, we explores how social, economic, and organisational dynamics are shaping AI integration in manufacturing, drawing on insights from World Economic Forum, CECIMO, and the European Research Area. 📊 With 39% of core skills expected to change by 2030, the need for interdisciplinary research is more urgent than ever: * How do we design human-centric AI systems? * What enables inclusive upskilling pathways? * How can Learning Factories support adaptive, experiential education? The transition to Industry 5.0 demands deeper collaboration across disciplines: engineering, social sciences, and policy. 👉 Read the full article on our website: https://lnkd.in/eWxZ3CJi
