Unlocking the Potential of Artificial Intelligence
A new generation of students is emerging, equipped with the skills to harness the power of artificial intelligence. As the demand for AI professionals continues to grow, these students are poised to graduate into a job market that is eager for their expertise.
The Future of Work
For students like Carmen Maeso, who is studying Artificial Intelligence at the King Juan Carlos University, the potential of AI is vast and exciting. “I would like to be part of that change and be able to take advantage of it,” she says.
As AI becomes increasingly integral to the way companies operate, the need for professionals who can safely and efficiently use AI tools is growing. Many students are already finding work before they finish their training, a testament to the high demand for their skills.
The Business Case for AI
According to Iván RamÃrez, coordinator of the Artificial Intelligence degree at the URJC, companies are recognizing the value of AI and are actively seeking out professionals who can help them harness its power. “They realize they can take advantage of these tools,” he says.
For companies like TMKF, AI is a key part of their operations. Sara Landeta, executive creative director of the agency, notes that AI tools like ChatGPT are essential for synthesizing large amounts of information quickly and efficiently.
The Challenge of Finding Skilled Workers
Despite the growing demand for AI professionals, many companies are struggling to find workers with the necessary skills. Marc Ribero, cybersecurity expert at Kaspersky, notes that this shortage is creating opportunities for those who are trained in AI. “The fact of working in a discipline that is booming will give you job opportunities,” he says.
The Economic Potential of AI
According to Google, the potential economic benefits of AI are significant. If Spain were to fully harness the power of AI, its GDP could grow by 120,000 million euros.
