BBC NEWS:

Interesting article from BBC news on 9th April, Devon needs AI skills for growth. The Devon & Somerset Local Skills Improvement Plan are looking at ways to help people develop the skills for the future.

I think AI can sort of be put in to 3 boxes

• Machine Learning (ML)
• Generative AI (GenAI)
• Large Language Models (LLM)

I have put a Blog post on Linux foundation training which has some links, to courses run by the Linux Foundation, EdX and others and in fact EdX, offer a number of AI courses, but as everything needs something (usually a server running Linux) to actually run on, it seems that learning how to use, maintain and administer GNU/Linux operating systems is also essential. There are a lot of AI software / Tools or Libraries under a GNU or similar licences anyway.

It could be an opportunity for the Devon and Cornwall GNU/Linux user group to expand and gain new members, who can at least get help and advice to get started, even though it is much easier to install than it was 25 years ago.
