It’s not enough to know a few cool prompts for ChatGPT—leaders today need to have a comprehensive understanding of generative AI tools, agentic AI and other forms of ‘machine coworkers.’ Focused on meeting the needs for ‘just in time’ education by executives and other leaders, this course will introduce AI modules under a simple and cohesive framework for digital transformation and AI readiness based in the experience and synthesis of a lead educator, Causeit Inc.’s CEO MJ Petroni, author of the AI & Digital Fluency Guide.
Unlike many ‘free’ AI courses from AI companies like OpenAI, Google, Microsoft or scattered videos, this fact-checked educational offering will be platform-agnostic, focused on transformation for existing businesses, and connected to a broader, comprehensive framework for digital transformation.
