Specialized AI Knowledge

Natural Language Processing (NLP) and Computer Vision: Specialized areas of AI, such as NLP and computer vision, are particularly lacking in Malaysia. A report by the World Economic Forum (WEF) highlighted that fewer than 1% of the AI talent in Malaysia are specialized in these advanced AI domains. This shortage is a significant barrier to the development of AI applications such as speech recognition and image processing. AI Ethics and Policy Development: As AI technology grows, there is an increasing need for professionals who understand the ethical implications of AI and can develop policies to govern its use. However, Malaysia currently lacks experts in AI ethics. A study by PwC found that 60% of businesses in Malaysia recognize the need for ethical AI governance but struggle to find qualified professionals to address these concerns.
