This one-day online workshop offers practical training, live demos, and group activities that will help every public servant understand how AI and agents will change the public service. Taught by Alistair Croll, who chaired the world’s largest AI and Data Science conference (Strata) for a decade and helped create the Data Science and Critical Thinking course at Harvard Business School, this will go beyond vendor hype and hot takes to help government employees rethink digital services in an AI era.

This won’t be another “what is AI and how does it work?” lecture; instead, it’s the result of months of hands-on development, testing, and research.

There’s no doubt that generative artificial intelligence holds great promise. But, as one attendee at a recent AI and culture event in Banff put it, “AI is a great tool to do somebody else’s job with.”

We’re trying to use it as an amplifier, not a replacer. 

The frontier of AI is shifting so quickly, the only way to understand its uses and limitations is to get your hands dirty. So for the last six months, we’ve been building and experimenting. And on April 21, we’re going to show you what we’ve found.
