Aim: The central objective of the AI Employability project is to empower those who have been economically disenfranchised
As the visionary behind AI Employability, my journey is one fuelled by passion, resilience, and a relentless commitment to making a difference. My name is Kris Godsman, and my story begins with a pivotal moment of transformation during my time in prison.
While incarcerated, I seized every opportunity to educate myself, immersing in books on artificial intelligence and sustainable development. Despite the challenges, I finished my sentence with a First-class BA (Hons) Arts and Humanities degree {economic history} and an M.Sc., Sustainability Transitions degree specialising in Sustainable Innovation Investments.
Upon my release, I embarked on a mission to turn my newfound knowledge into action. Drawing from my educational experience and fuelled by a deep-seated passion for social impact, I founded AI Employability. I assembled a dedicated team of like-minded individuals, each sharing a vision of empowering others and driving positive change.
Our idea is simple yet profound: to harness the power of artificial intelligence to provide meaningful employment opportunities for those facing barriers, such as long-term unemployment or a criminal record. We envision a world where everyone has the chance to thrive, regardless of their past or circumstances.
