Value chain resilience
The modern manufacturing landscape is undergoing a transformative twin transition, integrating green and digital technologies to bolster value chain resilience and explore re-shoring options. Amidst this paradigm shift, concerns about job displacement by machines, particularly through the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), have become more pronounced.
SkillAIbility delves into the challenges posed by the pursuit of excellence in the Industry 5.0 framework, focusing on the potential impact of digital technologies on the nature of jobs and the ensuing need for human-technology complementarity.
Human-centric approach to assess digital technologies
The potential for AI to exacerbate social disparities and inequalities, especially for vulnerable groups, is also a significant concern. Additionally, the manufacturing sector faces labor shortages, impacting innovation capacity and economic competitiveness. The mission of SKillAIbility is to address these challenges, emphasizing the need for a human-centric approach to assess digital technologies and enhance workers' employability.
14 partners from across Europe
The SKillAIbility project, funded under the Horizon Europe program, brings together 14 partners from across Europe to address the evolving needs of the manufacturing sector in the context of Industry 5.0.
