Beyond the Tools: The Human Skills That Matter in an AI World
Thu, Nov 5, 6:30 AMWe hear plenty about the skills people need in an AI world. But what do the people using AI in industry have to say? At Victoria University’s inaugural AI Skills Hackathon, students interviewed 23 industry practitioners about AI in their work. Associate Professor Natasha Dwyer will share insights from those conversations, analysed against employability skills frameworks. The usual suspects such as strong communication skills proved crutial. The value lies in the detail: how practitioners describe those skills in the context of their own industries. The interviews also explored AI’s potential to level the playing field. Smaller organisations can often adopt faster than large organisations, and that speed is an advantage. AI can help small and medium enterprises to compete with more resourced organisations. Join us to discuss what these industry perspectives mean for human skills, organisational adaptability and where competitive advantage might emerge. \-\-\- More about Natasha (Tash): Associate Professor Dwyer coordinates the postgraduate digital media program at Victoria University. Her research explores the socio-technical elements of trust. Since 2023, she has led conversational AI projects, with both traditional and practical research outcomes. One of these projects, the Welcome Room, features in TEQSA's (Higher ed. governance body) Generative AI Emerging Practice Toolkit and is currently developing it into an interface designed for students with a wide range of functional needs. She previously served as Interactive Designer at the Australian Centre for the Moving Image and was a Research Fellow at British Telecom. Her role was to facilitate public access to ACMI’s collection

SEEK's CTO on AI transformation: a lunchtime fireside chat with James Ross
Thu, Nov 5, 1:15 AMJoin us for another exciting **in-person** Product Tank event! The event is free, but seats are limited—secure yours now for a fantastic opportunity to meet the speakers and connect with the community. **Event outline** James Ross, CTO of SEEK, sits down for an informal fireside chat on AI transformation. No slides, just questions: • What building with AI on the side has changed about how he thinks about engineering at seek • What's been tried, what's worked and what hasn't • Where it's hardest: people, process or tooling • The experiments he's most excited to run next • His advice to other leaders **About James** James has spent about half of his four decades in tech as a programmer and tech lead, and the other half as a senior manager and leader across startups, scale-ups and corporates. He's had more luck than he thinks is fair, and is one of the only people you'll meet who's written a book you can buy on Amazon, music you can listen to on Spotify and software you can buy online as well. He's very excited about getting his coding mojo back thanks to AI and although he failed to get either of his daughters into tech, he's going to try again with his two grandkids! Don’t miss this opportunity to gain invaluable insights and network with industry experts! **This is an in-person only event.** Doors open 12:15pm, core session from 12:30-1:30pm. See you there, Product Tank Melbourne Team
