Thoughts on software, AI, and building things that matter
A reflection on AI literacy from the AI Agent & Copilot Summit, focusing on the shift from using generative AI tools to structuring work, defining accountability, and understanding where human judgment belongs.
Presented on the evolution of AI literacy at the Community Summit Roadshow: access is no longer the differentiator, structure is.
Most modern, business-focused software systems rely on high-quality data to function effectively. As artificial intelligence continues to shape these systems that support knowledge work, the demand for high-quality, diverse, and reliable data has never been greater.
This talk focused on building practical AI literacy so leaders and knowledge workers can use generative AI effectively and responsibly. By demystifying how modern AI systems work, the session aimed to replace hype with confidence and readiness as AI becomes embedded in everyday workflows.
