Scottish AI Alliance relaunches free course on AI Literacy
According to Claire Gillespie, manager of digital economy skills, "even though we are not aware of it, we are all interacting with AI on a daily basis, whether it be through social media, online purchases, or phone apps."
The Scottish AI Alliance has declared the relaunch of its free online course, living with AI, which aims to educate and engage the people of Scotland about artificial intelligence (AI) and how it affects our daily lives.
Having the knowledge and confidence to comprehend AI and its ramifications is crucial as it continues to influence industries and society.
Dawn McAra-Hunter from the Scottish AI Alliance indicated that "the relaunch of Living with AI represents a vital time for Scotland to establish itself as a leader in trustworthy ethical and inclusive AI," as he explained.


"From the algorithms in our media to its applications in medicine, AI literacy will be essential to ensuring that people comprehend how this category of technologies may affect their lives.
"Living with AI will provide its users with a thorough understanding of artificial intelligence in our society and the ethical considerations they should keep in mind when interacting with AI by focusing on the ethics of AI."
The Scottish AI alliance is working with Skills Development Scotland (SDS) to promote and encourage the adoption of Living with AI.
"Whether we are using apps on our phones, making purchases online, or browsing social media, we are all interacting with AI on a daily basis even when we are not aware of it," stated Claire Gillespie, manager of digital economy skills.
"SDS welcomes the opportunity to work with the Scottish AI Alliance to help our colleagues, our customers, and our partner organizations develop the essential skills for a digital world of work, as the role of AI in our lives is only going to grow."

With subjects including what artificial intelligence (AI) is, whether it can be reliable, ethical, and inclusive, AI and society, AI and work, and the future of AI, the course blends expert insights with interactive learning.
