*Comments:*                     The National Artificial Intelligence Advisory Committee (NAIAC) Workforce and Opportunity Working Group seeks public feedback into ways the nation can support people's lifetime employment and career success as they navigate changes in jobs and the economy brought on by AI, automation, and other factors. The Working Group would appreciate receiving expressions of interest in participating in public dialogues throughout 2024 addressing the following:                

1. Perspectives from workers on the impact of automation, AI, and other factors in their lives, jobs, and careers. This could include feedback on the nature and quality of support programs and resources available to them and ideas for how employers, government, and other stakeholders can help them today.

2. Ideas for new frontiers for supporting workers, career pathways, and otherwise expanding opportunity as AI changes the economy and nature of work. This could include: explaining data and knowledge gaps that, if closed, would help workers, organizations, policymakers, and others make better, data-informed decisions; and, elaborating on nascent ideas and innovations with the potential for national impact and scale.

                    Individuals and representatives of organizations who would like to offer comments and suggestions related to items on the Committee's agenda for this meeting are invited to submit comments in advance of the meeting.
