The goal is to demystify generative AI, explaining how this technology is evolving rapidly and becoming integrated into our organizations and daily lives.
Through practical examples and widely adopted tools like Copilot, ChatGPT, and Claude, the lecture clarifies immediate use cases and shows how to integrate AI into daily tasks and team processes to save time and improve the quality of work.
Beyond individual use, it aims to provide organizations of all kinds—businesses, public institutions, and non-profits—with the essential benchmarks to better understand how to approach and adopt this technology in a thoughtful and sustainable way. No useless theory: only what helps you understand, make decisions, and take action.
