What We Covered

Recently, I had the pleasure of hosting a "AI Fundamentals" workshop in partnership with the The Greater Miami LGBTQ Chamber of Commerce (MDGLCC), and what an amazing group showed up!

About the Workshop

We broke down the basics of AI in plain, human language and explored real-world ways that small business owners and professionals can use AI tools like ChatGPT to save time, boost productivity, and make better decisions. From where AI coming from to where it is headed, we covered it all, no tech background required.

This was one of my favorite sessions yet, not just because of the energy in the (virtual) room, but because it reinforced something I deeply believe: AI should be accessible to everyone, not just big companies with big budgets.

Elevate AI is a proud member of MDGLCC, and it’s an honor to support a community that champions innovation, inclusion, and small business success.

Special thanks to the Chamber for the invitation and support. Stay tuned for our next session coming soon!
