Episode 5: Learning skills 

With groundbreaking capabilities and almost instant results, AI can sometimes seem like a magic button.

However, if you’ve played around with some basic generative AI tools, your first experience likely led to disappointment. Yes, it’s ability to craft language is impressive, but to get usable outputs that make a meaningful difference to your business, you need to develop new knowledge and skills.  

Rich inputs—whether that’s the quality of your prompts or company data—provide rich, impactful outputs. So, some understanding of AI and development of new skills is necessary to achieve the best results. 

In this episode our AI documentary series, our speakers explain the importance of proactively developing these skills, what you should focus on first, and why modelling behaviour to the rest of your team is essential. 

Key takeaways
