Professionals who take the time to educate themselves on AI now will soon outpace those who don't. Not because they have more intelligence, but because they have more adaptability. Yesterday I gave a presentation to the Christchurch AI Meetup, and shared some of the uniquely human characteristics that will help us thrive, in an AI-powered future:
The more we can bring these human qualities into our work, and use them in our partnership with GenAI, the more likely we will thrive in the next evolution of our world. That's why I created the AI-Powered Professionals Program. This 4-week webinar series will help you to improve you skills as an operator of GenAI, through interactive exercises, step-by-step tutorials, and copy/paste prompting techniques. 💡 What Changes in Just 4 Weeks?Last month, I ran the first cohort of the AI-Powered Professionals Program. The very first thing we did was take a survey. The very last thing we did? We took it again. And the results were 🔥:
These are the kinds of improvements that help you finish projects faster, think more clearly, and amplify your effectiveness. If you'd like to level up your AI skills, it would be great to see you in the program next week! We meet 4 consecutive weeks on Zoom. Replays, slides, and a Google Doc workbook are available if you can't make it to the live sessions. 📰 New AI News This Week

Hello Reader, Robots can now out-human humans. In a recent study, more than 1000 people at UC San Diego took part in a classic Turing test with four GenAI models. GPT-4.5 was selected as the real human 73% of the time, according to this preprint study released last week. This marks a significant milestone in AI development. The Turing Test was proposed in 1950 by Alan Turing as a method to determine if a machine could exhibit behaviour as intelligent as a human. His paper 'Computing Machinery...
