From Curious to Capable: Understand AI and Put It to Work in 90 Minutes

This hands-on session facilitated by Metronome Labs cuts through the jargon and shows AI doing real work on the everyday task’s businesses run on. In 90 minutes, attendees learn what AI actually is in plain English, watch it handle a range of common business tasks in minutes, then do a guided exercise themselves with ready-made prompts. No prep, nothing to install and no technical background required, so everyone walks in cold and leaves having built something real

LEARNING OBJECTIVES & TAKEAWAYS

1. Understand AI in plain English: what agents, skills, and prompts actually are, with no jargon.
2. See AI do real work across a range of everyday business tasks, done live in minutes.
3. Do it yourself, hands-on, with ready-made prompts and leave knowing exactly where to go next
 

WHAT WE’LL DO TOGETHER

• Cut through the jargon: what AI, agents, skills and prompts really are, in plain English

• Watch AI handle a handful of everyday business tasks: draft an email, clean a spreadsheet, build a fully branded proposal in minutes

• Get hands-on: everyone works the same guided exercise on our GRCA page, with ready-made prompts to run

• See where it goes: that same work connected to live data and running on its own

 WHAT YOU’LL WALK AWAY WITH

• A finished piece of work you made yourself with AI, ready to use tomorrow

• A plain-English understanding of what AI is and how to actually use it

• A branded one-page cheat sheet of the key ideas, to keep and share with your team

• A concrete next step if you want to go further

YOUR TAKEAWAY

Everyone walks out with a branded one-page reference, “AI in Plain English,” that defines the core ideas and shows how they differ. It is co-branded to the GRCA and Metronome Labs and built to be shared, so the value travels past the room to colleagues who could not attend, keeping both our names circulating in Berks County.
