If you want hype, this isn’t it. If you want a clear, working understanding of AI—and how to use it the right way in business and daily life—this evening is for you. We’ll show real demos, give you prompts you can copy, and cover how the different versions of ChatGPT (Free, Plus, Pro) actually change what you can do.
What you’ll walk away with
- A short list of high-impact AI use cases that reliably save hours each week.
- Prompts and frameworks you can plug into email, ops, planning, fitness, and research.
- A plain-English view of Free vs Plus vs Pro: speed, context limits, image tools, custom GPTs, Operator, integrations—and when to upgrade.
- Safety and brand protection basics: what not to paste into prompts, privacy settings, history management, and how to fact-check AI output.
- A next-step plan for continued learning here in Rockland.
Who it’s for
Small business owners, operators, professionals, creators, students—anyone who wants useful, safe AI, not buzzwords.
Included
Light food and beverages, live demos, Q&A, and take-home resources.
