As AI and frontier technologies threaten to replace many of the jobs we currently depend on, we are witnessing an accelerating “tech talent war” for people with skills to train, deploy and use these powerful technologies. This demand has never been higher and is only going to accelerate. As these technologies continue to shape our future, addressing the crucial need for talent at a policy level is imperative. Some governments and academia worldwide are starting to recognise this need and taking innovative steps to bridge the skills gap, some through policy and some via programmes. We urgently need both and more.
