If you missed out on our Beyond ChatGPT session at the end of last month, we are running another one next week facilitated by Simone Blakers and Lee Schofield. Come along! 🗓 18th July at 5:30PM AEST 📍 Online ❓ What to expect: This online session is designed to give you a foundation on AI and large language models in a fun, highly interactive and practical way. You'll play on lots of different AI tools to help give you a peak into the current capabilities of the models, and go beyond ChatGPT. We also dive into the ethics, risk and limitations of the tools. 👩🎓 Who this is suited for: We have a focus on building AI literacy for professional women from non-tech backgrounds to counter the emerging gender divide (that said, we are inclusive and anyone is welcome). They are small(ish) groups where we encourage people to share their experience, and love to have an open discussion about AI (unlike a typical online course which are often dry and theoretical). 🗯 Some recent reviews: “This workshop has changed the way I work and think about my work. Although I was aware of how these tools might be useful, setting the time aside to be guided through a variety of options, and how they are best used was exactly what I needed to get me off the sideline and into the arena. I'm so grateful for the engaging teaching style that both presenters brought, encouraging having a play and demystifying this crazy new world we inhabit!” "Lee and Simone lead a very informative hands-on workshop. They are very knowledgable (as well as open to learning) about the topic and complement each others skills beautifully. They create a safe space (read: they don't make you feel dumb) for questions, practice, and play.” Available here: https://lnkd.in/gJ65kNDt #AIliteracy #generativeAI #education #training #upskilling #chatgpt #genderdivide

If you haven't been to one of our online workshops yet - sign up and come along tomorrow night! We also how have our follow up session "Prompting Playground" running on Thursday and Friday.

We have multiple dates and times to choose from for our second event. Join us to get hands-on with the future in our prompting playground.

This is the second online workshop in our AI in Action event series. Helping non-technical professionals get hands-on with generative AI tools.

Back by popular demand! We are re-running the first online workshop in our AI in Action event series - Beyond ChatGPT. Here's what previous participants had to say about it... “The workshop gave me the right amount of technical information to have a basic understanding and practical tips that I can immediately embed and leverage in my day-to-day.” “Thank you for hosting an outstanding workshop on AI beyond ChatGPT. The webinar exceeded all my expectations. Super informative and educational with hands-on exercises. Both Lee & Simone are incredible presenters, knowledgeable with the ability to explain in 'layperson' terms.” “I really enjoyed this intro to AI. Like many others I have had a try of free AI tools but not enough to understand the complexities. The workshop was an eye-opener to how I can use these tools and enabled us to try out a couple of different platforms to get an understanding of the benefits / risks for each. Looking forward to doing more in this space.”  

Last week Simone Blakers and Lee Schofield launched the first Future For Now online workshop, “Beyond ChatGPT: Learn and play with multiple GenAI tools”. This workshop was focused on getting attendees onto the tools and learning about generative AI through play. The workshop was a lot of fun, with plenty of great discussions on the effective use of the tools, as we well the ethics and limitations of the tools. Below are some of the reviews our attendees shared about the workshop.
