AI, he said, is being adopted faster than any previous technological transition, from the internet to smartphones, and is poised to fundamentally reshape how businesses operate. The talent transformation is huge, he said, adding there will be a need for AI engineers, forward deployment engineers, forensic analysts - roles that didn't exist a few years ago.
