Multiverse Assembles AI Advisory Board to Guide Workforce Transformation Efforts
LONDON, Sept. 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Multiverse, the British EdTech that uses skills diagnostics and applied learning programs to unlock economic opportunity, today announced the formation of its Artificial Intelligence Advisory Board. The board, composed of luminaries from academia and industry, will provide strategic guidance on Multiverse's use of AI to identify skills gaps, enable career mobility, and deliver high-quality, personalised learning at scale.
Multiverse英國教育科技公司利用技能診斷和實踐學習計劃解鎖經濟機會。今天宣佈成立其人工智能諮詢委員會。該委員會由學術界和工業界的傑出人士組成,並將就Multiverse使用人工智能來識別技能缺口、實現職業流動性以及提供高質量、個性化的大規模學習提供戰略指導。
The rapid advancement of generative artificial intelligence has radically reshaped the world of work, necessitating an entirely new set of in-demand skills. However, the current education-to- employment system has struggled to keep pace, resulting in a transition that is both economically inefficient and socially inequitable.
生成式人工智能的快速發展徹底改變了工作世界,需要一整套全新的緊缺技能。然而,當前的教育就業體系無法跟上步伐,導致了經濟效率低下且社會不公平的轉變。
"AI is creating profound change in the skills that both companies and societies need to be successful," said Euan Blair, founder and CEO of Multiverse. "At Multiverse we believe this shift has AI as both the provocation and the solution - new educational tools built on gen AI are opening access to personalised training at scale, and done right we can use the benefits of AI to drive large scale reskilling programs and mitigate the job losses the technology otherwise might bring. Our AI Advisory Board massively expands the range of expertise we can rely on, and will be instrumental in ensuring we stay at the forefront of this transformation."
Multiverse的創始人兼首席執行官Euan Blair表示:「人工智能正在對公司和社會所需的技能造成深刻變革。在Multiverse,我們相信這種轉變以人工智能爲催化劑和解決方案 - 基於生成式人工智能構建的新教育工具正爲大規模個性化培訓開啓了通道,只要做得對,我們可以利用人工智能的好處推動大規模的再培訓項目,並減少技術可能帶來的工作損失。我們的人工智能諮詢委員會大幅擴展了我們可以依靠的專業知識範圍,並將在確保我們始終處於這一變革前沿方面發揮重要作用。」
The board brings together recognized experts in AI, computer science, workforce development, and education. It includes:

"AI is profoundly transforming education, said Kersti Kaljulaid, former President of Estonia and global technology leader. "Multiverse is leading the way down one of the promising paths. As we explore the application of AI to increasingly complex tasks, it's thrilling to have a front seat on this journey."
「人工智能正在深刻改變教育,」愛沙尼亞前總統、全球科技領導者克斯蒂·卡利亞萊德說。「Multiverse正在引領着這個前景光明的道路之一。隨着我們探索將人工智能應用於日益複雜的任務,能夠在這個旅程上坐在前排是一種激動人心的體驗。」
Multiverse's unique platform identifies, solves, and prevents skills gaps, enabling people to develop at all career stages by equipping them with in-demand skills in AI, data science, software engineering and more. Through its acquisition of Searchlight earlier this year, Multiverse gained the ability to diagnose organisational skills gaps at scale, recommend targeted interventions, and deliver them through applied learning programs like apprenticeships. To date, the company has trained over 16,000 professional apprentices and generated more than $2 billion in ROI for its clients.
Multiverse獨特的平台能夠識別、解決和預防技能缺口,爲人們提供發展機會,掌握人工智能、數據科學、軟件工程等熱門技能。通過今年早些時候收購了Searchlight,Multiverse能夠在規模上診斷組織的技能缺口,推薦有針對性的干預措施,並通過學徒制等實踐學習項目進行交付。到目前爲止,該公司已經培訓了超過16,000名專業學徒,併爲客戶帶來了超過20億美元的回報率。
The formation of the AI Advisory Board comes on the heels of the successful launch of Multiverse Atlas in February. Atlas is an AI-powered coach offering personalised, on-demand support to Multiverse apprentices. Early analysis shows Atlas has achieved adoption rates of over 40% and usefulness ratings exceeding 91% across all demographics.
AI諮詢委員會的成立是在Multiverse Atlas於2月成功推出之後。Atlas是一個由人工智能驅動的教練,爲Multiverse學徒提供個性化、按需支持。初步分析表明,Atlas在所有人口統計學中實現了超過40%的採用率和超過91%的實用性評級。
"Our early results with Atlas demonstrate that when designed thoughtfully, AI can meaningfully expand access to world-class education in an equitable way," said Ujjwal Singh, Chief Technology Officer at Multiverse. "With the guidance of our AI Advisory Board, we will double down on our efforts to harness this powerful technology to drive economic opportunity for individuals and workforce transformation for organisations."
Multiverse首席技術官烏傑瓦爾·辛格說:「我們與Atlas的初步結果表明,當AI被精心設計時,它可以以公平的方式有意義地擴大世界一流教育的獲得途徑。在AI諮詢委員會的指導下,我們將加倍努力利用這一強大技術,推動個人的經濟機會和組織的勞動力轉型。」
The Multiverse AI Advisory Board will meet quarterly, with additional ad hoc sessions as needed. Its initial priorities include developing governance principles for the ethical development and deployment of AI, identifying opportunities for product innovation and enhancement, the content of Multiverse's AI offering, and showcasing Multiverse's industry leadership and thought partnership on AI's workforce implications.
Multiverse AI諮詢委員會將每季度會面,並在需要時舉行額外的臨時會議。其初始重點工作包括制定人工智能的道德開發與應用的管理原則,尋找產品創新和增強的機會,Multiverse的AI服務內容,以及展示Multiverse在人工智能勞動力方面的行業領導力和思想夥伴關係。
"We are at a critical inflection point in the world of work," said Annie Devlin, former Global Head of Learning at JP Morgan AWM. "We became obsessed with 'where' our people were working but we should be much more curious about 'how' people work—which tools they use to augment what they can produce on their own. Imagine having the best manager you have ever had next to you, nudging you and guiding you when you are stuck or bored and need a boost? That's the potential AI brings to the knowledge worker of tomorrow. And it requires a whole other level of skills training than most employers offer today."
「我們正處於職場世界的關鍵轉折點,」前摩根大通AWm全球學習主管安妮·德夫林說。「我們變得過於關注我們的員工在哪兒工作,但我們應該更加好奇他們是如何工作的——他們使用哪些工具來增強自己獨自完成的工作。想象一下,當你遇到困難或厭倦並需要提振時,旁邊有你有史以來最好的經理,在輕推和指導着你?這就是人工智能爲明天的知識工作者帶來的潛力。這需要比大多數僱主今天提供的技能培訓水平要高得多的技能培訓。」
