About this Event
Co-hosted by graduate students from Georgetown University’s Master's in Conflict Resolution program, this event convenes leading experts across technology policy, digital literacy, and industry practice. As artificial intelligence rapidly reshapes both the conditions of learning and entry into the workforce, the emerging workforce stands at the forefront of this transition, navigating both new opportunities and emerging vulnerabilities. AI is not only transforming how the workforce acquires practical skills and knowledge, but also redefining the availability and requirements of entry-level roles, raising concerns over preparedness and long-term career prospects.
In a geopolitical climate that increasingly prioritizes technological competency, this discussion applies a conflict-centered lens to examine how structural drivers—including unequal access to AI tools, disparities in educational resources, and evolving labor market demands—risk deepening existing social and economic divides that disproportionately affect those entering the labor market. Panelists will analyze the sources of tension within these systems and propose governance strategies to mitigate harm. Finally, the session will explore how institutions can adapt to better support the emerging workforce, equipping them with both technical fluency and the strategic navigation skills necessary to thrive in an AI-integrated workforce.
