This beginner-friendly conversation will explain how AI projects are run, how non-technical professionals can get involved, and how these roles can help create more accessible and inclusive AI solutions.
Whether you’re new to AI, curious about how it can be applied in business, or looking to build your career in the field, this session will show you how to get started.
