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

Having access to a wide variety of different bodies of knowledge gives the generalist the ability to make unexpected connections between vastly different ideas. In a study of Nobel Laureates, researchers...
🤖 “There will be two types of companies in the future: those who are leading with AI, and those who are irrelevant.” - Jeetu Patel, Cisco Hello Reader, There’s a growing difference between people who use AI and people who think with it. That’s the difference between overwhelm and opportunity. Between playing catch-up and setting the pace. The AI F.A.S.T. Class Series is built to bridge that gap. It’s not another theory-heavy course about “the future of work.” It’s a practical, hands-on...
🤖 “Artificial intelligence is not a substitute for human intelligence; it is a tool to amplify human creativity and ingenuity.” - Fei-Fei Li Hello Reader, One of the questions I've been getting about the AI F.A.S.T. Class Series is - what is the workshop like? Are we listening to you talk, or are we getting hands-on, and actually doing something? If you want to see a sample of my teaching style, watch this 1-hour recording of a recent interactive workshop I taught in New Zealand. Prompt Like...
