Elliott Masie Announces Next AI & Learning LAB
Last month, Elliott Masie’s new AI & Learning Lab sold out. To accommodate demand, the Masie Learning Foundation has announced the next AI & Learning LAB will take place June 27-28 in Saratoga Springs, NY.
Elliott Masie, Chair, The Masie Learning Foundation, hosted the Learning industry’s first event focused on AI last month in Saratoga Springs, NY.
The first AI & Learning LAB + Briefing sold out, with 47 learning leaders and implementers participating from global organizations such as Prudential, PwC, CharterSteel, ESRI, Crowe, Deloitte, InterSystems, Imanet, Capital One, Erie Insurance, Cisco, Axalta, Konica Minolta, Edward Jones and many others from corporate, government and higher education.
Masie has added a second iteration of this new and different event for Learning and Training Professionals, taking place June 27 and 28 in Saratoga Springs, NY. Full details and registration at https://www.masie.com.
LAB host Elliott Masie shared that this is an intensive and interactive LAB focused on the implications, challenges, and opportunities of AI and Workplace Learning, and the quickly changing and evolving impact of AI and Generative AI on our world of Workplace Learning.
“In a nutshell,” Masie said, “We’re going to spend 2 days exploring how AI, Generative AI, Content Curation AI, Augmented Media and other emerging technologies may change, enhance, extend, replace or disrupt workplace learning."
AI is a provocative and also controversial force in the world of technology, business and education. Elliott Masie has created an interactive and experiential small event to help learning professionals better understand and imagine how learning organizations, business units and learners themselves will evolve learning processes with the rapidly expanding set of AI tools, systems and strategies.
The LAB is designed for both colleagues that are brand new to the AI world, as well as people experienced with AI tools and strategies. Each participant will use AI to imagine creating, curating, delivering and evolving learning activities. And, since the world of AI is changing on a weekly basis, participants will gather by video in July, August and September to track changes in the field as well as their own projects.
The LAB will explore AI & Learning by using a range of current and emerging AI, Chatbot, Generative Engines and Embedded tools and systems from various sources.
The goal of the AI & Learning LAB + Briefing is to provide a deep dive environment for participants to explore, experiment, challenge, innovate and discuss how the field of workplace learning and development may be impacted.
The format of the LAB is experiential and interactive. During the 2 days in Saratoga, participants will use and probe a range of released and still in “beta” AI tools.
Together, We Will Explore These AI & Learning Impacts in the LAB:
- How Learning Designers Might Leverage AI
- How Employees Themselves Might Use AI for Learning
- How AI Might Become the Curation Tool of Choice
- A-Learning: Augmented Learning with AI
- When AI Is Inaccurate, Dangerous, Risky or Worse
- Personalization with AI
- AI & Needs Analysis, Assessment, Testing & Simulation
- AI for Workflow Support, Nudging
- Rights & Use Licensing for AI Content
- Can AI Do Graphic Creation for Learning Resources
- Coaching with AI & Scaling Expertise Access
- Creating an Internal Content "Cave"
- Global Translation - Using AI for Language
- Is AI Supportive of Diversity & Inclusion
- The Role of Collaborative/Cohort Learning with AI
- Virtual Instructors and Digital Twins via AI
- Brain Science and AI: Research & Philosophies
- AI & LMS/Learning/Talent Systems: Pathways Forward
- Impact of AI on Learner Skills & Motivation
- New Skills for Learning & Development Professionals
- Job and Role Changes with AI in Learning & Business
- Your Questions, Concerns, Challenges & Curiosities about the Future of AI
Together during this comprehensive 2-day exploration of AI & Learning, participants will explore, experiment, challenge, discuss, and strategize on how the AI capabilities will impact Learning in the months and years ahead.
For 2 days, participants will explore and experiment with a wide range of AI, Generative AI, Content Curation AI and other emerging technologies --- from the perspective of how they may change, enhance, extend, replace or disrupt workplace learning.
Over the past 40 years, Elliott Masie has created and produced 6 different events and conferences in the Learning, Support, Technology and e-Learning Fields. “I am excited to explore this new and rapidly-growing tech, as it is already impacting the Learning and Training field and will continue to for quite some time,” he said of the upcoming AI & Learning LAB + Briefing. Masie was the founder and producer of Computer Training & Support Conferences, TechLearn Conferences, Learning Conferences, and Interactive Conferences, as well as a TONY-Nominated Broadway Producer of over 40 shows.
Elliott will be joined in facilitating the Lab by a range of education, technology and design experts and AI/Learning resources who will join either in-person in Saratoga, or will engage with the group by interactive video. These include Nick van Dam (education and technology leader), Andrea Wong (user experience researcher), and several CLOs and tech leaders.
The group will investigate “How Might AI Change, Extend or Replace These Learning Elements”: Learning Design, Instructional Process, Content Curation, Personalization, Needs Analysis, Assessment & Testing, Simulation, Workflow Support, Graphic Creation, Global Translation, Diversity & Inclusion, Nudging, Coaching, Collaborative/Cohort Learning, Virtual Instructors, Digital Twins, and Impact of AI on Learner Skills & Motivation.
Additionally, there will be follow-up for the group into the summer, via 3 one-hour live video calls in July, August and September 2023. Participants will explore brand new AI & Learning technologies and methodologies. Elliott Masie and the fellow Lab participants will provide coaching for leading an AI & Learning experiment in their organizations as well.
