🌟 Celebrating 2023: AIHQ's Leadership in AI Training & Consultancy 🚀

Dear AlHQ Newsletter Subscribers,

Happy New Year! As we step into 2024, I hope it's been an inspiring start for all of you.

Reflecting on 2023, a monumental year for AI, we're proud to have empowered almost 4,000 professionals through AIHQ's programmes. Estimations suggest these efforts could translate to a potential RM 113,248,000* in productivity gains across industries.

1. Major Highlights:

• ChatGPT engagement for IIA Malaysia: Engaging >700 professionals

• ACCA's specialised ChatGPT session: Almost 900 participants enriched

• Collaborations with CIAST, MRCA and MDEC: Impacting >900 industry leaders

• Roles Empowered: HR, Marketing, Finance, Management Roles, Trainers, Educators

• Diverse Industries Covered: Finance, Audit, Property, Technology & Automation, Retail, Manufacturing, Government, Education Institutions

As we establish ourselves as the go-to agency for Al-related programs, we're excited to announce upcoming trainings and collaborations with corporates like Media Prima, MUI Group and AlESEC in 2024.

_{^{* This projection is based on the median average annual salary in Kuala Lumpur, which is calculated at RM 81,560. This figure represents a midpoint between the lower average of RM 56,000 (as reported by PayScale) and an upper estimate of RM 107,120 (based on Salary Explorer's monthly average of RM 7,130 multiplied by 12). The calculation assumes a 40% productivity improvement and is indicative of AI's potential impact. It should be viewed as an illustrative estimate rather than a definitive financial outcome.}}

2. AI In Malaysia - Launch of AI Untuk Rakyat Portal

In a noteworthy development in Malaysia's digital landscape, the government has introduced the 'AI Untuk Rakyat' program. Spearheaded by Economy Minister Rafizi Ramli and launched by PM Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim, this initiative aims to bridge the digital literacy gap among Malaysians.

The program focuses on providing a foundational understanding of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to various segments of society, including students and the general public and is offered free of charge and available in Bahasa Malaysia, English, Mandarin, and Tamil.

3. World Economic Forum - Impact of AI on the Job Market

In light of the recent discussions at the World Economic Forum, it's evident that generative artificial intelligence is not just reshaping technology but also the global job market.

A survey of global chief executives highlighted some critical trends and anticipations for 2024:

• Headcount Reductions: About 25% of CEOs foresee generative AI leading to at least a 5% reduction in workforce this year, especially in sectors like media, entertainment, banking, insurance, and logistics.

• Profitability vs. Workforce Challenges: While nearly half of the CEOs expect an increase in profitability due to AI, there are valid concerns regarding workforce changes and the need for new skills.

4. Economic Outlook for 2024: A Cautious Outlook

In the face of 2024's economic uncertainties and the looming threat of layoffs, one skill remains paramount for professional resilience: Artificial Intelligence.
