If you’re struggling to keep up to date with AI- whether it’s comprehending the latest trend, bunkering-down for the future apocalypse or simply learning another valuable workflow, this workshop is your update to dive back into Gen AI.
Hosted by I2N’s Nick Stevens, he will showcase the big changes in Gen AI from 2025 to 2026, outline the best use-cases for small business, and discuss the future ramifications of this ambiguous technological frontier.
