Join us for our fifth session in the Beyond the Buzz AI webinar series where we will explore how AI is becoming part of everyday working life - but using it well requires more than technical knowledge. This session cuts through the noise to explore the real‑world challenges and opportunities facing the workforce as AI adoption accelerates. We will unpack why good data matters, how to avoid common pitfalls such as assumptions and hallucinations, and what an ethical approach really looks like when you’re under pressure to use new tools.
