Episode 3 Ted Talk: "***There Is No Code for Curiosity"***
by **Michael Deperro**
Senior Coordinator, Faculty Development and Professionalism
Case Western Reserve University School of Medicine

AI can serve up answers, but only people ask the questions that matter. As organizations race to integrate new technologies, we risk undervaluing the very thing machines can’t replicate: human curiosity, creativity, and judgment. This talk challenges the idea that efficiency should come at the cost of development, showing how the true power of AI lies in augmenting our people, not replacing them. When we design systems that honor curiosity, we don’t just keep pace with innovation, we lead it. In the age of AI, the winners will be those who invest in their people, not just their tech stack.

Continuing on with a Fireside Chat: **AI in Action**

A behind-the-scenes look at how one organization is turning AI potential into practical results, with tools, tactics, and lessons learned.

The goal: **Attract, Grow & Retain AI-savvy talent in the CLE.**

**A Special Thanks to Saucy Brew Works**
We’re grateful to Saucy Brew Works—and to owner and fellow AI enthusiast Brent Zimmerman—for hosting our AI Woodstock meetups. Thanks to Brent’s support, we get to direct all our energy toward conversation, collaboration, and community. We will be in the semi-private room adjacent to the main Bar & Grill. Enter off the sidewalk at the corner of 29th St. & Church Ave. If you enjoy the vibe and the venue, please show your appreciation by grabbing a bite, raising a glass, and sharing the love.

**Why Hingetown?**

Located adjacent to downtown Cleveland, Hingetown is a vibrant cultural pocket where creativity meets community. With its mix of historic architecture, contemporary art, indie shops, and local cafés, it’s one of Cleveland’s most dynamic neighborhoods. At the center of it all? Saucy Brew Works—a perfect launchpad for ideas, connection, and great conversation.
