The data technologies skills gap hinders economic progress and threatens to deepen existing inequalities. This isn’t just true for developing nations. The lack of solid educational concepts for children and adults will further damage European competitiveness.

The gap between the necessity of AI skills and the current state of AI literacy becomes increasingly apparent as we approach the mid-2020s. Despite the rapid integration of AI across industries, with 97% of organizations adopting AI technologies, there is a significant shortage of workers with the necessary AI-related skills. This disparity is highlighted by the fact that 47% of executives report their employees lack the knowledge and skills to effectively implement and scale AI across their enterprises. The demand for AI skills is 3.5 times greater than the average job skill. Yet, only 37% of IT professionals reported receiving some form of AI training in 2023, with 80% finding the training ineffective.
As AI continues to reshape industries and the job market, creating new roles while potentially automating others, the urgency of bridging this gap through creative education and training approaches becomes increasingly critical. “Romy & Roby” open a door into the world of AI, Robotics and quantum computing.
