As a partner at BCG in Berlin and an expert in Responsible AI and Generative AI, Kirsten Rulf emphasizes the importance of artificial intelligence (AI) in addressing Europe’s skilled labor shortage. She points out that Austria alone lacks 28,000 IT skilled workers, with millions of shortages across Europe. Rulf also highlights the lack of teachers to train future skilled workers as a significant challenge.
Rulf has been involved in shaping digital and data policies in Germany and has advised top leaders like Angela Merkel and Olaf Scholz on AI matters. She acknowledges the risks associated with AI, such as cyberattacks and misinformation, but also highlights its potential to drive economic progress.
Rulf believes that Europe has the opportunity to lead in AI applications but stresses the importance of transforming companies to leverage this technology. She emphasizes that successful AI implementation is not just about technology but also about people and their ability to apply AI effectively in businesses.
