The UK public sector is reeling for a lack of AI skills in the workplace, according to research from Salesforce. IT professionals in the public sector are about a third more likely to say there’s an AI skills gap in their organisation, compared to the industry average.

“In the face of a growing skills gap hindering AI adoption in the public sector, organisations must take control and prioritise skills training for staff so they can understand and implement AI safely and effectively,” Sheila Flavell COO of FDM Group said.
