Introducing: The AI Coach…

In a world where AI is becoming commonplace in making working environments, if you're not making the most of these new tools, you risk being left behind. So, I'm excited to offer bespoke one-to-one training sessions to give you the knowledge, practical skills, and confidence to become fully AI-literate.

ONE-TO-ONE TRAINING THAT GIVES YOU THE KNOWLEDGE, PRACTICAL SKILLS AND CONFIDENCE TO BECOME FULLY AI-LITERATE.

There's not a day that goes by where AI doesn't hit the headlines. 

Amongst the rapid development of the tech, the media furore and the threats of a dystopian future (seriously, if Skynet gets mentioned one more time...), the reality of using generative AI effectively in your day-to-day work can be transformative.

Yet few people are grasping the power of these technologies as a way of super-charging productivity. 

You might have used ChatGPT to write an 'OK-ish' blog, or write an email response to a tricky customer. Sound about right? 

In a world where AI is becoming commonplace in many working environments, if you're not making the most of these new tools, you risk being left behind.

So, I'm excited to offer bespoke one-to-one training sessions to give you the knowledge, practical skills, and confidence to become fully AI-literate.

As one recent trainee said:

"We achieved stupendous results with the first project after Phil's workshop, reducing a day-long activity to around 2 minutes. There were tears!"

My intensive one-day course will be tailored to your unique personal and business needs, helping you to:

  • Demystify AI: Get a nuanced understanding of AI and its direct benefits for your business.

  • Master AI Tools: Receive hands-on guidance to train AI systems and craft effective prompts for immediate impact.

  • Strategise AI Implementation: Forge a clear path for integrating AI into your daily operations for enhanced efficiency.

My approach isn't just about the technology; it's about weaving AI into the fabric of your daily reality.

You'll leave with resources that you can apply immediately, and you'll get ongoing support from me as you bed in your new practices.

With extensive experience working with diverse organisations within the creative and media industries, as well as educational institutions, I can add deep insights into the specific challenges you face.

I can deliver the training in person at a location of your choice or via Zoom / Google Meet if that's not convenient.

So, are you ready to explore how one-to-one AI training can revolutionise your business?

Well, let's talk!

Creating and Playing a LIVE Game Show with ChatGPT…

Diagonal Thinking’s Phil Birchenall demonstrates the cutting-edge capabilities of ChatGPT-4's Voice Conversation feature. Watch as a real-time game show unfolds, complete with on-the-fly questions about New Order, showcasing the limitless possibilities of modern AI

If you've ever wondered what it's like to create a game show from scratch and then actually play it, you're in the right place. We've got a treat for you—a real-time game show, co-created with none other than ChatGPT and played using its latest feature, Voice Conversation…

The Creation Process

Before hitting the record button, I spent a bit of time with ChatGPT, exchanging prompts and responses to shape the rules, rounds, and format of our game, so we were good to go once I fired up the webcam.,

The Gameplay

Now onto the exciting part! Hit play on the video below to watch me play the game in real time. You'll see how ChatGPT's Voice Conversation feature allows for relative smooth, interactive gameplay that feels almost like having someone else in the room. It's not just text on a screen anymore; it's an engaging, real-life experience.

Watch Phil playing a game show created and ‘hosted’ entirely through ChatGPT-4’s new Voice Conversation feature

Caveat: I did do some editing with the video to reduce buffering time, and occasionally, ChatGPT went off-piste, so there was some course correction. But note how questions were formed on the fly - my specialist subject of the band New Order was randomly introduced and CGPT gave me questions around them.

Why It Matters

This experiment isn't just for kicks. It showcases the potential of AI in creating interactive and dynamic experiences. From game shows to educational quizzes, the possibilities are crazy right now.

So without further ado, dive into the video and enjoy the game. Don't forget to leave your thoughts in the comments on YouTube.
