This is a fast-growing community of Australians with something important in common: we all work in the real word and need to learn to leverage the power of AI for ourselves and our teams. Many don’t know where to begin with AI and they don’t have time for courses or tech jargon.
I’m excited to show you what I have learned – how AI need not be a threat, but actually a superpower. AI combined with your wisdom, knowledge and experience gives you a distinct advantage over many other workers. I’m here to show you how.
I’ve been in the Australian workforce for 30 years, building and managing successful marketing, customer service and operational teams in the education and NGO sectors. I saw the potential for AI to bring real productivity gains to the workplace. I also noted that many of my colleagues had little awareness of the looming impact of AI – or the potential positive and negative implications for them. I realised that while AI may not take our jobs, someone who knows how to use AI definitely will. I also saw that many didn’t know where to begin or how they were going to keep-up with the changes, and they felt intimidated by most of the content around AI that was heavy with technical jargon and clearly aimed at a younger, more tech-confident audience. I began researching ways to help them, and a few things stood out: Only 24% of Australians have taken any steps towards learning about AI, despite the productivity and time-saving benefits of AI 73% of those that do use AI at work say it makes them more productive, reporting an average 4.6 hours per week saved 45+ year old workers remain the most skeptical of AI.
So that’s how ‘Help 4 Humans’ was born and I really hope you can join us. Start by subscribing to our free daily email that you can read in your coffee break.
