Designed to improve the way you work

You & AI was founded on more than a decade of building compelling learning experiences.

Ideas that matter

  • We teach practical application. Not what dazzles in a demo but what you will actually apply day in and day out to your work.
  • We build conceptual understanding. If you grasp the why, then you can deploy the how more flexibly & confidently.

Well taught

  • We put schema before detail
  • We start with a worked example
  • We show what past participants built
  • We leave pause points to discuss & consolidate
  • We open the next class with what you built & feedback
