The role of L&D professionals is evolving towards becoming human performance analysts who orchestrate learning journeys and measure their effectiveness. The adoption of AI in L&D is varied, with some professionals fully embracing it, while others have concerns about ethics and bias. Organizations need to have a culture of innovation and a willingness to assess and mitigate the risks associated with AI implementation. Adopting AI comes with challenges and risks that need to be addressed through responsible design and use of AI. Many organizations lack AI training programs, which may be due to the rapid changes in AI tools and technologies. AI can serve as a creative co-pilot in fields like animation, providing efficiency gains while allowing artists to showcase their creativity. The adoption of AI in education is slow, but there are efforts to incorporate AI into curriculums and support students in using AI as a learning tool. Individuals can elevate their AIQ by actively engaging with AI tools, experimenting with prompt design, and building a personal relationship with technology.
