Gosport Digital Peninsula Business Support Programme - Build and Show: AI Workflows in Action
A free, hands-on workshop in Gosport. 27th August, 10am to 12pm.
ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini and Copilot all get talked about constantly, but most business owners have only tried one, if that. This session cuts through the noise. You'll build an actual AI workflow for your business after seeing some examples from our host/guest speaker, using more than one of these tools.
What you'll do
- Get a clear look at what each of the top four LLMs is actually good at and a chance to look at recent updates relevant to small business owners
- Pick a real task from your business, admin, marketing, customer queries, research, whatever's eating your time
- Build a working AI workflow for that task, live in the room
- Showcase what you've built to the group and pick up ideas from what others have made
