Key topics include:
AI in the Workplace: How to use AI to optimise efficiency and productivity in various industries.
Enhancing Education with AI: How AI tools like Co-Pilot can support personalised learning and help students achieve better outcomes.
AI and the Future of Work: An exploration of the skills needed to succeed in the evolving job market.
