<p>Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the global trends which will transform our
future, changing jobs across the economy, including those working in the arts and
creative industries.</p><p>The creative industries’ growing interdependence with the
digital sector is inspiring business growth, invention and investment. The sector
already makes ingenious use of AI in many ways: to recommend content on streaming
platforms, to create Luke Skywalker’s voice in The Mandalorian, and to govern the
behaviour of non-playable characters in video games. However adoption of AI is not
uniform across the sub sectors, which risks us missing prime opportunities to improve
productivity and growth.</p><p>We want our creative workers to be able to build further
on these technological opportunities, which will play an increasingly vital part in
the sectors’ success, whilst safeguarding against risks associated with increasing
automation. Our Creative Industries Sector Vision will set out a long-term strategy
focused on promoting growth, with a section dedicated to the exciting future of this
dynamic workforce, including the impact of AI.</p><p>In the National AI Strategy,
the government set out a number of steps it is taking to develop the brightest, most
diverse workforce: from bolstering the provision of higher level skills at PhD and
Masters level to developing research that helps employees, from across sectors, to
understand what skills are needed for them to effectively use AI in a business setting.</p><p>Additionally,
UK Research & Innovation (UKRI) is developing a programme to help accelerate the
adoption of AI in certain low AI maturity sectors which are key to the UK economy,
with the creative industries being a potential priority sector to explore, which will
help to improve the sector’s productivity.</p>
