Artificial intelligence (AI) may not take your job, but someone who knows AI will.
That's why it's important for all workers to learn AI. While tools like ChatGPT, MidJourney, Claude, and others have taken the market by storm, skills such as prompting, development, and quality assurance will be especially critical as companies look to right-size their workforce and compete in a transformed economy.
Join our webinar and discover how you can build AI skills for your career and to show off at Thanksgiving dinner later this week or during the holiday season.
In this demo, Albert will show you how to use AI for basic tasks, including:- How to build a Thanksgiving turkey website for your job hunt
- How to set up your job search in under 20 minutes
- How to build a gratitude app
You'll also learn:
- How AI is transforming the workforce and what steps employers are taking to get ready.
- What skills will be necessary in the era of AI, and how you can learn.
- What AI can create, and how you can learn—even if you don't have the skills.
- And so much more!
