“The most overlooked factor in America’s technological competitiveness is the quality and availability of our workforce”

Peter Kant, CEO of Enabled Intelligence, was recently quoted in Clearance Jobs about the importance of America’s AI workforce in ensuring the country’s technological competitiveness.

“There’s so much focus on computer chips and software systems, but the most overlooked factor in America’s technological competitiveness is the quality and availability of our workforce. It’s America’s AI workforce that will dictate whether or not U.S. systems are the most precise and effective. And that workforce is not just coders and data scientists. The little secret is that most of the AI workforce is and will continue to be entry-level data labeling and analyst jobs that are needed to create and test the data used to train and test AI tools like ChatGPT.

For AI, that means keeping our data secure. This is crucial for protecting government and commercial data and technology.” – Peter Kant
