Today, we at Swedish JobTech released our very first industry report on the jobtech market in Sweden, and I’m incredibly proud to have been part of the team behind it. Swedish JobTech is a non-profit industry association that brings together organizations, startups, and individuals working to improve how Sweden’s labor market functions through technology. Our focus is on solutions that help people find meaningful work, support employers in meeting their needs, and foster innovation in the jobtech space.
Future of Work
AI shaping the future of work
I spoke at Berghs Unconference on AI the other week, highlighting how I believe AI will be a central part of shaping the future of work. The end goal? A more human centered labour market, where AI can help guide each individual through the fluid worklife of today. From job matchning, career guidance and support with life long learning, to becoming a trusted friend and colleague. You can now see the recording of my presentation online!
How AI can maximize the benefits of open data in the labor market
How does open data in the labor market become more relevant with AI? There is potential to find entirely new solutions for matching, career guidance, and lifelong learning. Today, I moderated a discussion with Mattias Axell from MetaSolutions and Rasmus Häggkvist from Skoolie about AI and open data in the labor market at Goto 10 for Swedish JobTech.
AI strategist at Swedish JobTech
Swedish JobTech has made a strategic decision to focus on highlighting how AI and the use of open data are affecting the labor market. Emelie Fågelstedt is now taking on the role of AI strategist for labor market issues at Swedish JobTech, where she will also lead the committee for data-driven education.
AI will have a major impact on the labor market moving forward, especially when it comes to redefining tasks and job roles. Combined with open data, there’s potential to create entirely new services and applications that can improve job matching and skills development in the labor market, but there are also regulations and EU directives to adhere to. Swedish JobTech sees it as strategically important to delve into this area while also exploring ways to contribute to its development.
My debut as an AI artist on Spotify!
I’m happy to announce my debut as AI artist BusBot on Spotify and other streaming services! My first three songs are now published and available to stream around the globe. Words by me, music created by generative AI.
Never stop exploring. Curiosity is the most important soft skill on the labour market today and tomorrow. I love experimenting with new technology, to explore what possibilities there are. This time, I’m actually blown away by the fact that I’ve been able to make a debut as an AI artist on Spotify.
