\nAre you using AI day-to-day and just kind of hoping you'\;re doing it right? Are you seeing the results that others are getting from their AI use and wondering how you can get there\, too? Are you driving the AI\, or is the AI driving you?
Join us for an evening with local AI consultant Eric Fadden where we'\;ll dig into the answers to these questions and a whole lot more. Part presentation\, part hands-on workshop\, we'\;ll skip past the buzzwords and hype and go straight into what makes for effective\, safe AI usage. We&rsquo\;ll drill down into the things you actually need to know to make it work for your business\, not just "\;doing AI for the sake of doing AI.&rdquo\; \;
\n\nBring your curiosity\, bring your questions\, and bring your laptop if you want to get your hands dirty. You'\;ll walk away with new ideas\, real things to try\, and a much better handle on who'\;s actually in charge &mdash\; you or the AI.
