LAB Overview:  “Spend 2 days with dozens of Learning Leaders and Innovators from major corporations exploring, experimenting and strategizing how AI, Generative AI, Content Curation AI, Augmented Media and other emerging technologies may change, enhance, extend, replace or disrupt workplace learning! - Elliott Masie, Host”

 

Context: AI is a provocative and also controversial force in the world of technology, business and education. Elliott Masie has created an interactive and experiential event to help learning professionals better understand and imagine how learning organizations, business units and learners themselves might (or might not) evolve learning processes with the rapidly expanding set of AI tools, systems and strategies.
