24AI AI Training in Progress: Challenges and Achievements at Meteorological Service of Canada.

The rise of artificial intelligence (AI) is significantly impacting meteorology. This presentation discusses the challenges faced by the Meteorogical Service of Canada as we work to equip our staff with essential AI knowledge. We aim to ensure all personnel have a basic understanding of AI concepts and vocabulary, and we are also developing specific training tailored to meteorology.

There is a strong internal enthusiasm for AI, both in general and specifically regarding AI training. We will share our experiences with general training sessions, our ongoing efforts to create meteorology-specific AI content, and our participation in communities of practice to address management challenges. Our goal is to help employees see how AI can support their daily tasks and scientific work.

Our training initiative is a work in progress, marked by both successes and ongoing challenges. This presentation aims to share our journey and plans for the future as we continue to integrate AI into our organization.
