Artificial intelligence is everywhere, but most people still aren’t sure where to start. Join us for a practical, beginner-friendly lunch and learn that shows you what AI can actually do for everyday work and small-business tasks—no tech background required.

In this session, you’ll learn simple, time-saving ways AI can support writing, communication, organization and decision-making. We’ll walk through real examples you can try immediately, whether you’re faculty, staff, a student, an entrepreneur or part of the local business community.

Bring your lunch and join us at CoWork @ The Hub or attend online. Garden Babies will deliver to CoWork!
