Linked – Employees need AI skills — but what does that training look like?
Training will continue to consist of identifying the necessary skills to get the work done and teaching those skills. There is an adjustment coming to those skills, but we’ve faced many adjustments.

Stolen Data is a Risk, Here’s an Example of Altered Data That is Worse
The entire system is based on the license plate database being connected to all of the automated plate readers. All it took for this to become a problem was for part of that not to stay safe. Since the license plate database isn’t, anyone can create a fake license plate, pop it on a similar-looking vehicle, and the collected data is tainted. All those people who had nothing to hide now have a system that assumes they were driving illegally, causing accidents, etc. They are facing actual fines, increased insurance costs, and possible arrests because of surveillance data that’s been hacked. Data that should show them as innocent but false information has been injected into it.

AI Junk Already Ruining Dating Apps?
Tinder Using Video Selfies to Verify User Identities Because of AI Selfies
Of course, the problem is that short videos are going to be easy enough to create using AI as well, so what will be the next step dating apps have to take to verify the identity of their users and make sure customers aren’t spending all their time on the app talking to fake AI-generated profiles? Or is this the end of that entire business model?
Don’t think dating apps are the only thing at risk with AI. Any online service based on contributions by authors, artists, musicians, etc., is at risk of being overrun by AI junk. In some cases, it’s probably already happening.
