Putting the ‘I’ back in AI
The Learning Technologies Autumn Forum will explore why L&D teams need to focus their attention on the end user alongside the shiny new tool, with Helen Marshall and Mark Ward from Thrive and Andrew Jacobs, Llarn Learning.
L&D is guilty of being attracted to buzzwords and shiny new tech. We’ve seen it all before with skills, learning culture, VR, AR, and now AI. At Learning Technologies in May 2023 about 20% of all ‘on the floor’ seminars had AI in the title, and at least one session from the conference was focused on AI each day.
But what did all these sessions teach us? Optimistic caution is going to be key in making real use of AI in our products and services across L&D. The core focus area should remain: how can we make learning easier and more effective for our end users by utilising AI to help us achieve our aims?
Join this session to find out why we are putting the “I” back in AI, and how you can too.
"Putting the ‘I’ back in AI" takes place at the LTAF 2023 online event on Tuesday, October 17, 2023 12:00 AM to 13:00.
The Learning Technologies Autumn Forum takes place online on 17, 19, 24 and 26 October. The full conference programme is available from the Learning Technologies Autumn Forum website.
