DCMS commissioned this research to improve understanding of the current UK Artificial Intelligence (AI) labour market.
The research aimed to gather evidence on:
- Current skills gaps
- The role of training, recruitment and outsourcing to fill skills gap
- Current skills shortages and the level and type of job roles they affect
- Where the AI jobs market is active geographically
- Diversity within the workforce
The research also aimed to recommend policy areas that government and industry should focus on to bridge the skills gap.
