英国政府在兰开夏郡普雷斯顿启动一项试点计划,为失业和未就业青年提供人工智能培训课程1。该项目面向16至24岁的NEET(未受教育、就业或培训)青年,共有70人参与为期三周的培训1。根据官方数据,英国该年龄段的NEET人口近100万,占相应人口的十分之一多1。
完成培训的学员有机会进入与政府合作的企业从事AI相关学徒工作1。参与合作的企业包括零售商JD Sports、食品公司Heinz和IT公司Agilysys,提供的岗位分为两类:AI营销专家(内容创作者)和IT帮助台(IT专家)1。
前工党内阁部长Alan Milburn曾警告英国面临"失落的一代"风险1。King's College London研究员Dr Bouke Klein Teeselink指出:"我们对AI如何影响非大学毕业生市场没有很好的认识"1。
The British government has launched a pilot program in Preston, Lancashire, delivering three-week artificial intelligence training courses to unemployed and economically inactive young people aged 16 to 24 1. The initiative, involving 70 participants, aims to address the growing youth employment crisis by equipping NEET (Not in Education, Employment, or Training) individuals with skills that lead directly into apprenticeships 1.
Successful trainees will have access to apprenticeship opportunities with major employers including the retailer JD Sports, food company Heinz, and IT firm Agilysys 1. The apprenticeships fall into two categories: AI marketing specialists focused on content creation and IT help desk professionals 1. This targeted approach reflects broader concerns about youth employment prospects, with nearly one million young people in the UK classified as NEET, representing just over one in ten of that age group 1.
Experts warn that while such programs offer meaningful intervention, the scale of the challenge demands comprehensive solutions. Former Labour cabinet minister Alan Milburn has cautioned against the risk of a "lost generation," while Dr Bouke Klein Teeselink from King's College London emphasized the knowledge gap surrounding AI's impact on non-graduate job markets, noting that "we do not have a good understanding of how AI will affect the market for non-university graduates" 1.
