Still Not Sure if This Workshop is For You?

You CANNOT afford to miss this if your in a role related to IT Services and Solutions

AI disruption is unlike other disruptions in the past. Current disruption impacts all areas of enterprise - strategy, functional, technical and more. So there is oppurtunity for all experiences.

Second, current disruption has levelled the playing field. No one has 10+ years of experience in Generative AI. So if you put in the right effort now, then you can be far ahead of the rest of your peers. Learn, Apply and Capitalize fast as the role you are in may not be there tomorrow - atleast not in the same format.

The changes are too RAPID for me to keep up !

Yes the changes are rapid but there is breath of foundational capabilities which can be of huge value to business - so one need not keep chasing the new shiny ! We will focus on few matured and established capabilities where Industry in investing actively NOW !





Myth : LLMs are for Big Players and not for others !

Generative AI is NO more prohibitively expensive.

Inference costs are down by ~100x from 2023 to 2024

Cost continues to come down.

Gen AI Fundamentals will require me to be a

Coding Czar !

Currently LLMs can be used for building AI applications with few lines of code. Also multiple Frameworks, Libraries and Tools abstract all the complexity. Third, No-code tools like KNIME are well updated for Gen AI.

Myth: I don't have time to learn AI!

Yes 24 hours is less for most people ! Yet many accomplish far more in the same 24 hours !! From my experience, it is about what we Priority, Focus and Consistency. Gen AI will impact careers in near-term for sure and we are providing a easy path after invest countless hours so that you just need to invest 2 Hours a day to get on journey to "AI Mastery" !

It is all too Overwhelming!

AI is a complex topic indeed and many courses focus on Technical Mambo-Jumbo. The Industry need is to "Apply AI for solving Real-world business problems" and not the technicalities of LLM. Our Learning Framework (DARE) aims to simple and easy mastery for you.
