Gaining proficiency in AI will protect individuals and organizations from getting left behind in this technology revolution.

First Fridays: AI for Animal Welfare Professionals COllaboration Calls

I have listened to Kristen presenting many times over the past decade and she always entertains as well as educates.

I highly recommend Kristen and her group.

The [AI] course has 10xed my capacity to leverage AI and 100xed my curiosity…while it has drastically, but hopefully temporarily, reduced my capacity for other things as I dive into learning more!
