Corporates in Kenya are increasingly treating artificial intelligence (AI) literacy as a core workplace skill amid concern that employees who do not understand the technology risk exposing organisations to cybersecurity and data privacy threats.
Business leaders meeting at the Nation Digital Summit CEO Roundtable on Wednesday said organisations are moving beyond deploying AI tools to investing in programmes that equip workers with the skills to use the technology responsibly as it becomes embedded in everyday business operations.
