Generative AI for Learning

The promise of generative AI for learning is transformative, radical, and real which is why we are exploring over 150 use cases with our team of over 50 AI experts.

Generative AI will radically transform learning.

With generative AI, we can create learning experiences that were never possible before. Large Language Models are already capable of creating simulation-based learning environments that can respond realistically to any input from the learner, while simultaneously providing advice, coaching, and real-time evaluation. Over the next few years, these capabilities will make almost all existing training obsolete.

At NIIT, our team of over 50 AI experts are not just newly minted prompt engineers – they are seasoned professionals with years of AI expertise helping to create the future today. Our secure AI learning environment allows for rapid development of complex AI ecosystems that enable us to marshal the latest and greatest AI tools to achieve the learning of tomorrow.

We believe that revolutionary change is coming to learning. The revolution will occur in four stages.

The Four Stages of Generative AI for Learning

Accelerate

In this stage, generative AI significantly speeds up basic course development by delivering high-quality, error-free content that rivals the work of experienced instructional designers without burdening subject matter experts. Advanced LLMs can create complete introductory-level courses in all domains in a matter of hours, with built-in checks for grammar, spelling, and proper usage, minimizing errors.

Elevate

The next level involves creating complex courses through collaboration between humans and AI. LLMs provide comprehensive and detailed content across various domains and subject matters. These advanced models are skilled at developing highly practical, interactive scenarios and skill progression paths. Additionally, the language used by these AI models can adapt to various tones and writing styles to suit the desired audience.

Transcend

In the third stage, generative AI enables real-time, interactive learning experiences. Organizations can safely incorporate their own proprietary data to expand the model’s knowledge, allowing for in-depth role-play activities that include coaching and assessment. The most advanced models can create highly complex simulations, providing learners with immersive, true-to-life experiences.

Unify

At the most advanced level, generative AI choreographs personalized learning journeys by integrating learning strategies, learner context, domain knowledge, company, job, and training context. This unified approach can be applied to various scenarios, including real-time role-plays, coaching, analysis, observations, feedback, and transformative learning embedded in the learner’s workflow. By using AI to create tailored, context-aware learning experiences, organizations can achieve new levels of engagement and effectiveness.

In my lifetime, I’ve seen two demonstrations of technology that struck me as revolutionary. The first time when I was introduced to a graphical user interface. The second big surprise came last year [with generative AI].

NIIT’s AI Factory: Real World Impact at Scale

We’re working with ambitious partners to create the future of L&D today. NIIT’s AI Factory is a secure, compliant, future-ready platform that is ready to solve learning and development’s biggest challenges, such as:

RAPID DEVELOPMENT

Content development lags business needs, failing to meet the demand for timely, high-quality training.

NEW HIRE TIME TO COMPETENCE

New hires take too long to become proficient, causing resource strain and delays in achieving business goals.

BRIDGE STRATEGIC PERFORMANCE GAPS

L&D is not seen as a strategic partner in closing performance gaps, leading to missed opportunities for real-time problem solving.

SPEED TO UPSKILL WORKFORCE

Challenges in upskilling the workforce quickly enough to keep pace with industry advancements, risking competitive disadvantage.

LEARNING PORTFOLIO OPTIMIZATION

An overwhelming catalog of generic courses confuses learners and fails to deliver targeted, impactful training.

KEEPING PACE WITH CHANGE

Constant changes make training materials quickly obsolete, draining resources and causing persistent rework.

VISIBILITY OF WORKFORCE SKILLS

Lack of real-time visibility into workforce skills hinders effective talent management and strategic planning.

AI-DRIVEN PERSONALIZED COACHING

Providing world-class, personalized coaching for critical roles is logistically and financially challenging at scale.

ACTIONABLE DATA INSIGHTS

Inadequate actionable insights from operations data prevent agile, informed decision-making and improvement of training programs.

BUSINESS AND L&D ALIGNMENT

Misalignment between training initiatives and strategic business goals leads to inefficiencies and wasted resources.
