WHAT YOU’LL LEARN
In this free, 45-minute hands-on session, ODSC's Sheamus McGovern shows you the difference between chatting with AI and putting it to work.
You'll watch Cowork sort a messy folder of files into order, turn raw notes and spreadsheets into a polished, ready-to-send document, and set up recurring work that runs on its own, no prompting required.
Just the everyday tasks you can hand off to AI that eat your week: filing, formatting, summarizing, following up, etc.
Leave with one task you can delegate this week, and a clear next step for what to automate after that.
