Artificial intelligence is now part of everyday life, but many people still feel unsure how to use it well. This practical workshop cuts through the hype and shows you how tools such as ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini can help with planning, writing, creativity and daily problem-solving.

You’ll also learn how to use AI more safely and critically, including recognising deepfakes, spotting scams and understanding some of the ethical and environmental questions around these tools. Bring your own laptop or tablet and leave with practical skills you can use straight away.
