AI is something we all talk about – in our businesses, at networking events, with our clients and our suppliers. However, how often do we make time in the company of other business owners to collaboratively explore it's potential to change our businesses?
Join 25+ businesses this Thursday 28th November | 10am-midday in the Winchester Suite at the Washington Mayfair Hotel, 5 Curzon Street, Mayfair W1J 5HE to do just that.

Led by Jon Bains, founder of Obsolete.com, this interactive session, "Harnessing AI: Balancing Automation and Human Potential", is designed to help you navigate the evolving landscape of AI and digital transformation. Together, we'll explore real-world examples of successfully blending human expertise with AI tools, like using emotional intelligence to fine-tune customer service chatbots, or applying human intuition to interpret complex data analytics. You'll discover how to strike the right balance between automation and human-led tasks, ensuring your team feels valued and engaged in this digital revolution.

What to expect:

• Interactive Roundtables: Participate in dynamic group discussions to identify repetitive tasks that could be automated, freeing your team to focus on more meaningful work.
• Exploration of Human Potential: Uncover the unique strengths of your people and learn how AI can support and amplify these valuable human qualities.
